post_break Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Hey guys and girls. My names ryan and I was introduced to this site about a year ago. I had no idea what OS X was but I was able to get it to run on my toshiba. Fast forward a year and a half I own a macbook and posting this thread. I would have to say that the x86 version of OS X molded me into a mac user. Looking forward to posting more on here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zhinchliffe Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 Sup. My name's Zach, and I've been an unregistered lurker for around a year, when I first became interested in Mac OS X after my Windows computer became increasingly unreliable. I attempted to install OSx86 on it, but it was insanely slow on my 128MB RAM computer. So I saved up, and got an iMac in the summer. Now I've joined here because of the recent Apple TV flurry.

onemanstrash Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 Howdy everyone. I don't remeber how I found osx86, but I freaked out when I found out I could put OSX on a pc. I have been using mac since 99. I am an artist and musician so I don't much about programming. I am just so grateful for this site. I have installed the jas 10.4.8 on a dvd onto a used homemade pc I got off of craigslist and it worked right out of the box! I am now going to try and build a real hackintosh using the p5w dh deluxe board. Here is a screen shot of me running protools and a drawing I did on painter using the hackintosh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shigimatsu Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 Hey, My name is Evan I'm a male, 18 years old. (19 on the 27th of July) I'm a sophomore at Western Michigan University (but I hate the college ) Been in a 2-year relationship, still going I love computers, music and video games. I prefer Vista to Mac OS X, apple to windows, but I love them both. I HATE Linux. Well, at least Ubuntu 7.04. And Xubuntu. If you want an operating system with a terminal, just get Mac, it's so much easier. I love the following bands: The White Stripes, Muse, Black Sabbath, Rush, Muse, Artillery, Buckethead and anything he touches, Liquid Tension Experiment, John Petrucci by himself, Count Zero and Muse. I don't really like rap, but I like a few old school rap bands, because I played Thrasher: Skate and Destroy. (A Tribe Called Quest, Run DMC) I know how to speak English, German, Japanese, and soon, Russian. I own an XBOX360, and an Epiphone Les Paul Studio, with a Crate amp (2 16" speakers, 140watt) and a Roland X-something Synthesizer. I'm hoping to get a degree in music/be in a kickass band. Action RPGs and Adventure games are my favorite video games My favorite thing to drink is Baja Blast Mountain Dew. (Taco bell only so far... :[) I miss Pepsi Blue There is me in a nutshell XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watch many different kinds of movies, listen to music from genres ranging from every extreme of the spectrum, all that. I'm an Apple switcher, convertee, whatever. Just not fully yet, cause I'm too poor to afford a Mac. But I started saving up for a new MacBook so hooray me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rob356 Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 Hi people My name is Robert. I came here when I read about OSx86. I wanted a mac so much after I went to one Apple store class. I got it because my grandparents have two macs and they have pro care, were going away, so they gave a class to me. They are so expensive, so I did this. I used to be just a windows expert, but now I am pretty good with macs too. At school the teachers call me out of class just to fix their computers, and my family almwas seems to come to me with all their computer problems. thats me!

I like computers, always have (duh), but when I discovered the OSX86 project it reinvorgorated that (and my P4!) I think if I was using windows, I wouldn't really have any passion for them!
