Thanks for your optimisim and encouragement, guys!
I'm not saying the increase will effect -ALL- PCs, your hardware is a huge factor in this. Also, I'm definately not "pulling numbers out of my ass", as Seta-san said. Being someone who wouldn't have even bothered to post this unless I was absolutely sure of the data, as I use this screen name on all forums and online games I'm a member of, I'm quite offended someone would assume I'm jackass enough to lie. If you disbelieve the speed increase potential, then simply wait until the OS is up for download and judge for yourself.
Anyway, thanks Bobbi. Expect a good dose of screen shots displaying progress within the month. Most of us live near Pittsburgh PA, so we'l most likely be taking screen shots at one of those meetings. Also, I ask that everyone keep in mind that programmers have lives too. I have a wife and daughter myself, so if I sat at home coding constantly in my free time... well... I'd be SOL.
Also in response to Criftus, I know what you mean. The OS is supposed to make the hardware run like it's dedicated, as that's how you get the speed increase. It's not like another OS that tries to run other programs while running the emulator. In fact, if one tried they'd find out that since all options for that have been disabled and all focus goes directly to the emulator and drivers the emulator use... Well, you'd fail to run any other programs except the emulators. The OS itself pretty much acts like an advanced frontend, as someone mentioned before. More or less, it just says "Here. These are the drivers for the PC hardware. I'll just supervise to make sure everything runs well and pick up slack on certain things".
I hope that explains things a bit more. ^_^
[EDIT] Also, if you live near Pittsburgh PA and would like to attend one of our local staff meetups to see for yourself, that would be welcomed... as long as we don't have like fifteen people there at once. Just send me a PM or something and I'll let you know when and where it is around the time we have one.
