Claiming the first true Windows emulation capabilities -- with "nearly native" speeds -- under Mac OS X for Intel-Based Macs, OpenOSX has shipped WinTel 2.0 as a Universal Binary application.

A statement says:

"Our WinTel product built for the new Intel based Macs runs Windows within Mac OS X offering performance we have always dreamed of: nearly native.

"Experience full-compatibility with x86/Pentium(R) processors, disk images, CD-ROM support and much more on your Mac.

"WinTel is our popular Cocoa graphical user interface used to control the included powerful underlying open-source 'Bochs' x86 emulation software (Bochs is pronounced as Box). We now include both PowerPC and Intel optimized binaries."
