Has anyone considered letting Aperture live forever on a VM?
I've often thought about this. We use Virtual Machines's at work all the time. For example we have 1990's CNC equipment that needs Windows95. We are running state of the art PC's with modern operating systems but run the CNC using Win95 in a VM. And my desktop at work is an iMac but I run Windows7 in a VM (because our ERP system is Windows based) and it works flawlessly.
Fusion's VM is advertised to be able to run a Mac OS - although I've never tried. When Aperture becomes incompatible with latest operating system, you could theoretically still run it using a VM. Aperture would be an icon in the dock and should look and behave as normal.
For those who love aperture I wondered if anyone has considered or tried this?
