This page will help you get a look at the XO software, by running a "virtual XO" in an emulator. |
|||
Another option is burning a [[LiveCD]]. |
|||
'''This page is being revised. Until that is completed, non-Windows users may find the [http://wiki.laptop.org/index.php?title=Emulating_the_XO/Quick_Start&oldid=91261 old version] easier to use.''' |

== Who should read this page == |

Your mother probably should. That might help. |

== What to expect == |
|||
This "virtual XO" was created as a software development tool. '''It is not intended for general use, and many things will not work.''' It is "just to get a taste" of what the laptop is like (and to help software developers). With time and people constraints, we are focused on the real XO. |
|||
*The camera and video will not work. |
|||
*Things are slower than on the actual machine. If you are unable to install qemu's kqemu accelerator, very much slower. |
|||
*You will see a snapshot of the past. The instructions will have you download the "latest stable build", which is sometimes quite a few weeks old. Development is very rapid. Things will be missing or different compared with the present. |
|||
*While rapidly maturing, this is still "alpha" software. |
|||
*TamTam, the popular music program, will likely not work (no sound). |
|||
