I found a macbook pro

 

Intel Core i5 dual-core 2.3 GHz

320 GB HDD

HD Intel 3000 384 MB SDRAM DDR3

4 GB RAM

LED 13.3 1280 por 800 pixels

 

and a Samsung RF 511S

 

Intel Core i5 2.4GHz

750GB HDD

NVIDIA GeForce GT 540M Graphics

8GB RAM

LED 15,6"

 

The thing is... will the Samsung work like a Mac installing Leopard or Tiger on it? will it have problems? unexpected kernel errors, etc?

I believe the GT 540M uses Optimus. It switches well in windows to the integrated Intel Graphics without problems but no one has been able to get this to work on a Mac Clone yet.

 

You probably will be able to get the integrated Intel graphics card to work as many others have done using other Laptops with this scenario but you will not be able to use the Discrete Graphics card GT 540M and too me that is a waste.

 

I have a lot of Clones but do own a Mac Pro and no PC clone at that time could touch it. I also soon will buy a MacBook Pro in time.

 

Go with the MBP unless you get something like you see in my signature that is about 100% Mac Clone. Stay away from Discrete Nvidia Graphics cards that use Optimus.
