"Technically, however, they represent different philosophies: the ARM architecture is designed to be as simple as possible, to keep energy wastage to a minimum, whereas Intel's range uses a more complex design that benefits from compatibility with the company's (much more power-hungry) desktop and laptop CPUs." Well then why can't I run Windows on a raspberry Pi? Also, what is start4.elf?

Microsoft seems to know there are issues with Windows on ARM because it won't even sell you a copy of it. The company licenses the ARM version only to OEMs to pre-install on new systems. When asked if it would open up sales so people could run Windows on the new Macs, Microsoft said it had no plans at this time.
Start4.elf is a file that raspberry pi uses to boot.
Hope this helps!

I need to adapt embedded linux distribution to an unsupported hardware. Actually im working on an embedded linux distribution.
Im lost from where to start. My question is, what factors should I consider before starting the configuration.
Im guessing drivers should be first on the list but Im not sure.
Can you help me to find a starting point and list the points and what should I pay attention for?
Kind regards
If you don't know the starting point, you won't be able to carry him all alone.
Probably you need to modify the first stage bootloader, adapt u-boot, the kernel drivers, the device tree, ...
You could use something like Yocto, but again, I don't see any chance that you will solve it all at your own.
Currently my company adapts Yocto to a new developed board, with a team of 15 people.

I am trying to create apps, but obviously you can't on windows. I have searched on youtube so many times and I just need a solution. I tried Yosimite on VMware and it told me the virtual CPU would not work. (Also I have access to a mac if needed for install procedure). Thank you!
You can't without running into illegal content like Hackintosh
Please note that Apple allows the use of Mac OS X only on its own devices

I recently need to run a program Metro:
http://vcg.isti.cnr.it/downloads/downloads.htm
It is used to measure the difference between two 3d models.
However, this program has to be run in irix 6.2/6.3. But I only have a win8.1 laptop. Is there any way to run it in a shell like cygwin? Or is there any available virtual machine resource of irix platform?
Thanks!
The software you're trying to run is old enough to drive in most countries (compiled in 1998), and was compiled for an operating system that doesn't exist anymore (Irix) that ran on a CPU architecture that's no longer even used for desktop computers (MIPS-II) and was released by a company that doesn't exist anymore either (SGI).
Your chances of getting it to run are practically nil without some major retrocomputing work. Sorry.

What exactly does heart bleed do and how can I protect my Windows XP from heart bleed? I heard that it takes your personal info by using memory. Can I lock my memory so that it can't use it? And if so, some insight on the subject would be nice. :)
I'm going to assume you didn't intentionally install openssl on your XP machine and that you aren't using your XP machine as a server. It's likely that the only thing you really need to worry about is websites you communicate with where the possibility that your information could be stolen could result in a significantly negative outcome for you... you need to make sure those companies have patched their servers if they were affected by the issue.

I found that to start with apple app development you need to have some sort of Mac.
I wonder if one may load an image of an Mac OSx on an Amazon EC2 instance for this purpose.
Not going to work. EC2 uses Xen for its virtualization technology, and the chance of a Mac Xen port is pretty much nil, due to Apple's famously tight control over their operating system. Your best bet is probably to pony up for a Mac Mini; they're relatively cheap and could make a good starter dev box.
You want a local one anyway. You'll be running IDEs and a bunch of interactive utilities; latency from using a remote desktop will make everything just that much more difficult.
