Hi, I have been thinking of trying to hackintosh a laptop for a while now and I think I want to try it on the new Asus Zenbook Prime. I would just buy an air but the full HD IPS display would be so awesome on OSX.
I did a bit of searching and haven't really found much on people trying the ultrabooks but at the risk of sounding too optimistic, it uses pretty standard parts. Third gen low voltage i7, USB 3.0 integrated into the chipset. HD graphics 4000. Intel SATA 3 storage controllers. all of these are pretty much the same as the Air. Surly the keyboard and trackpad don't need anything special.
Not too sure about wireless, I think it uses a realtek chip. Anyone know what the air uses?
The only think I can really see being a problem are the function keys on the keyboard which use the ATK packages. I think they also influence the power use of the laptop so that could be affected too.
Any thoughts from experienced hackintoshers? Would be sweet to have this run OSX.
