that sounds promising!

 

one question though: how fast could this our hackintosh?

i mean, when will our "alternative developers" get their hands

on the neccessary parts of snow leo in order to get a working

driver for 9600 in leo?

Unfortunately, you can't put 10.6 video kexts into 10.5... There are too much differences between the two OS :)

 

So don't expect to be running a GT200 or a 9600 GT on Leopard any day. You will have to migrate on Snow Leo.

Snow Leopard is intended to be lighter, faster and more feature packed ;)

i'm sure apple will release a newer leopard graphics update for 10.5 or even include newer kexts for the newer cards in 10.5.5 or something.

Why would Apple do this? Are they intending on moving towards gaming, selling the OS stand alone, or allowing video cards without the correct BIOS to work (Is that even possible)? :(
because 1) they do have some gameing 2) video cards with fast 3D support is needed for pro apps 3) because nvidia writes the drivers anyways and all their cards use the same architecture.3 is the most important, there will be a low/mid/high end nvidia 280 core cards and the same driver will enable all of them to work.
But the Snow Leopard release day is about 1year later,How can I use my9600GT for OSX in this year :(
you return your 9600gt and you get a 8800gt instead.

Apple has always atleast kept up with the video cards, they do it because they've done it for awhile. They keep up with the current hardware. Simple.

 

But right now, I would barely consider the 8800GT seeing that it's $50 less than the 9800GTX.
