Can your Mac do this?

Can your Mac do this?
The short answer is Yes... by installing Linux Ubuntu and Compiz Fusion. For those who don't know what Ubuntu is, it's a Operating System(OS) based on the Linux Kernel... or rather, a Linux Distribution. Compiz Fusion comes preinstalled with Ubuntu, you just have to activate the option for it. For full use of all the eye-candy goodness, you should install Compiz Config Settings Manager(CCSM).

To download Ubuntu(for free and legally) go to the following address.

What you need to do that.

Very big graphics card

Very small penis

@KileyD321 This was recorded on my laptop, the graphics chip is 2 inches maximum. And since you've expressed curiosity about my penis, I can assure you it is far longer than that.

If he were to be using Linux on windows at the same time it would probably be some sort of emulatorr that or I could just me some image running on the shell

@0soulwisper0 Well, no. other than Flash and Reader, Adobe does not (to my knowledge) release software for Linux. Photoshop can be installed through WINE (software layer) with varying results, but I'd rather use software that is natively compiled for Linux, like GIMP (instead of Photoshop) and kdenlive (instead of Premiere) and Inkscape (instead of Illustrator). The only Adobe software I personally would like to see in Linux is After Effects.

@tona17yo porque tiene kubuntu!! xD

[tona17yo]

sii, si puede

[FatLingon]

@asvvampire OK, so.. what was it then? I'm still not convinced your friend managed to have two main OS running at the same time on the same hardware (unless it's done through virtualization, but then it would not be two "main" OS, it would be one main OS functioning as Host, handing out resources to a Guest OS.). Please provide more information, preferably a link to a website where the workings of what you witnessed is explained.

@FatLingon no need to explain WINE to me i already know what it is. and yea trust me it wasnt wine :P

[FatLingon]

@asvvampire I can do that(run Windows executables) on Linux as well, through a software layer called WINE... WINE works on Mac's as well. However, running Windows software through WINE does not mean that Windows is booted on the machine, far from it. Check winehq (dot) org for more info.
