Hackintosh - Mac OSX on a PC

[Freakin]

So many of you probably remember last year that Apple switched from PowerPC to Intel processors. Obviously, code had to be rewritten to accomodate the new hardware. As a result, the OSX86 Project was born. The project basically shows how one could install OSX on common x86 PC hardware. The amount of supported hardware is quite impressive.

The main page http://osx86project.org consists of two sides, the Wiki, that is basically just overview information, and does not contain anything that could violate the DMCA, and the InsanelyMac forum, which is where you'll find walkthroughs, guides, and FAQs all about how to actually do the installs.

I was curious, so I gave it a go. I'm posting this from my Dell XPS M1210 Hackintosh running OSX 10.4.8.

Here's a picture.



Wasn't too hard to get it all up and running, and now i'm dual booting OSX and windows XP. The only things i was unable to get working were the integrated webcam and the sleep function (but it boots up in literally 30 seconds, so who cares).

Pretty fun, all around. I've got it running both ilife & iwork, office 2k4, photoshop cs3, [censored], itunes, and all the other normal Mac apps.
