What do you use your Hackintosh for?

Everything. Ranging from plain i-net surfing, downloads, office applications to serious stuff like audio editing & music composition with Peak Pro & Cubase 4.

 

It's equipped with a second hand Cinema HD 23", Aluminum Keyb, Mighty Mouse and iSight. From time to time I forget it's not an Apple made Mac.

Currently don't use it. I installed it to familiarize myself with the OS since I wanted to get an iMac. Still not very productive in it (shortcut keys are killing me) and I'm in the middle of a couple of projects so I'm ignoring it in favor of Windows for the time being.

I used mine for everything too...I only boot in windoze once a while to do some stuffs which requires windoze...if not I'm on my Hack pro or macbook all the way. My hack pro is fitted into Powermac G4 case with aluminum keyboard and mighty mouse...still lack an Apple Cinema Display to complete my project.

absolutely everything. i haven't used windows in as long as i can remember. internet, media, word-processing, multitrack audio recording. even have it connected to my main tv and running plex as a media center. best media set up i've come across. i think the real question is... what don't you use your hack for? lol

I use mine for every day computing...honestly I got everything working that I use. Here's the list.

Music / iPhone management

Internet surfing

World of Warcraft

School work

Digital Photography / Raw photo editing

Showing off

That is the short list.

I did the same thing I did when I learned Linux, I completely dumped Windows and worked till I had everything working. My problem with Linux was I tinkered to much, was tired of Flash issues on 64bit OS, & it just wasn't as good for my digital photography.

I use my hackintosh to tell everyone how much this hell hole fails.

 

LOL!!!!

 

+I use my fake mac to use Aperture 2, and every time I boot back to Windows XP... I realize how unrefined windows is.

Same here about that {censored} windows story!

Running iDeneb V1.3 and using Adobe CS4 most of the time, since i do not have windows installed i'm actually doing anything with OSX..

 

(Funny fact, in Dutch windows is often said as windhoos, which is english for tornado.. which ofcourse is a disaster, just like windows!)
