Certain chips work while others don't, you might want to have a quick google.  |

It's the chipset I think? Correct me if I'm wrong, but macs use a variety of custom-built motherboards don't they?
Yeah - they go by the name of Logic Boards, because Apple have to be different. :rolleyes:
But yes, you normally have to build your Hackintosh from the ground up.

'Hackintosh' is a slang name given to an unauthorised (and therefore illegal) version of Mac OS X that has been hacked to by-pass Apple's hardware checks and include extra hardware driver support, which allows it to run on an ordinary PC.
Not a good idea unless you really know what you're doing!

Its not too hard, I'd say its about 2x as hard as dual booting linux. Providing you have a mortherboard that works (I lost ethernet  )

Save you 300 euros. Not only do you get a faster PC, but you get it for cheaper! Some people are so ungrateful! |
