Windows XP runs for PS3, but is VERY SLOW.  It will be slower for XB360 when complete.

You are wrong there. And for the reason below.

On 360, linux actually seems to run faster than PS3. I'm not exactly sure why, but when I open apps or folders, they don't take ages to load like on PS3...

The Xbox 360 has dual processors (and a GPU), meaning 2 CORES.
The PS3 has a single processor. Which uses CELLS.

There is a reason you don't see Cell processor computers everywhere.

Cells are inferior to Cores.

XP and Linux were also designed to run on cores.

I suppose I could set up a test and run a CPU heavy app on the 360, record the time taken for it to load, and then do the same on PS3 .  Would that offer enough proof Powerslave?

You were talking about there being a PPC only linux distro.  Could you give me a name or link to it?


Thanks,

awesome project

5:38pm:

I've started working on reducing the number of unnesessary background apps running, hopefully resulting in a noticeable speed increase.

OK, I'll make one now.  Do you want the full thing; from 360 power-up to booting XP?

yea incredible stuff.

OK.  I'll have it ready to upload at around 11:15am (GMT+0).

Video is ready, uploading now .

Here it is: (Sorry about filesize )

I pressed the key right beside 2. Sorry. fracking 2 and 3 are right beside each other. People make typos, as I saw several times in your reply.
I'm not calling you out whatsoever. Maybe you shouldn't be so fast to jump to conclusions so you don't come off as a jerk.

Well, as an ADMIN, you aught to be a little astute with your language, all you know how to do is SWEAR when you get mad or upset, and call people names.  I don't care what I come off like, at least I am not using profanity in my posts! All that shows, is a persons lack of vocabulary, and compelte ignorance of the english language, as in you can't find a well thought out word to use, so you use primitive four letter ones.  As A moderator, I can't expect people to follow rules I won't follow.

Jump to conclusions, well, I do not see a carved stones here anywhere....   With all the typo's and missinformation that flys around, how is anyone to know WHAT YOU REALLY MEAN????  You said 2 and I thought you meant 2 because it was never correceted till your colorful metaphoricly worded speech.

I knew the 360 had a tri-core processor since before it launched. Relax powerslave. It's just the internet. Swearing isn't disallowed on the forums. I didn't even mean anything by that, I wasn't even mad , yet again you come after me. For what reason? Meh.
