ssdcommander Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 Airport connects to your ISP when your modem is disconnected, turned off, and the Ethernet cables is unplugged from your router. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerkex'd Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 Your Airport doesn't connect to your ISP when you're using a retail copy? It doesn't matter if you place an Apple sticker on your PC and install retail on it, it's no longer piracy, but it is still illegal. The EULA is very clear about it; you are only allowed to install OS X on Apple hardware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssdcommander Posted June 12, 2010 Author Share Posted June 12, 2010 Well isn't intel proccesors apple hardware? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerkex'd Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 No. An Intel processor is, quite literally, Intel hardware. "Apple hardware" meaning a complete personal computer built by Apple. I don't remember the exact wording but the license is pretty clear about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mdnz01 Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 I don't think the autorities give two {censored} about what OS you're running. Unless you're some big company, you'll be fine. Seriously, have you ever been caught pirating a game or downloading music ? Nope, thought so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssdcommander Posted June 13, 2010 Author Share Posted June 13, 2010 do i do either? no, i only pirated mac, twice, so i could install it and see if it works, i pirated another copy that took a full day to download, and ubuntu 10.04 to move and then at 1:30 in the morning i installed it, then updated, twice, then i went to bed. and why move to brazil? i could just go to some island somewhere in the pacific and have them run cable to me, i cant deal with satellite internet.

ShadowsOfSilver Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 Technically speaking, if you were to run mac osx on apple tv, it would not violate the EULA, and would be legal, because it is Apple made hardware. Although you'd have to run Tiger and deal with 256 MB RAM. -cough- So OSX on Apple TV would be a good alternative to Hackintosh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerkex'd Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 The AppleTV can run Leopard and Snow Leopard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lord_muad_dib Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 actually, every mac has a serial number, and hacked bootloaders(chameleon) fake it with a fixed one for everyone. if apple is phoned, apple knows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerkex'd Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 If you mean the fixed platform/systemUUID in Chameleon 2.0 RC4, that was quickly taken care of by rekursor (where did he go?) who uploaded a patched version in the RC4 release thread. AsereBLN's Chameleon variant also has a fix for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XLR Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 EULA 10.5 This License allows you to install, use and run one (1) copy of the Apple Software on a single Apple-labeled computer at a time. You agree not to install, use or run the Apple Software on any non-Apple-labeled computer, or to enable others to do so. EULA 10.6 You are granted a limited non-exclusive license to install, use and run one (1) copy of the Apple Software on a single Apple-branded computer at a time. You agree not to install, use or run the Apple Software on any non-Apple-branded computer, or to enable others to do so. It means that apple sticker won't work with 10.6, it's compatible with 10.5 only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssdcommander Posted June 15, 2010 Author Share Posted June 15, 2010 Actually yea it will, I have an apple sticker on it and according to http://www.thefreedictionary.com/_/dict.aspx?word=branded a. A trademark or distinctive name identifying a product or a manufacturer.b. A product line so identified: a popular brand of soap. so yes an apple sticker will do it or a MacBook sticker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Proxin Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 This is a funny thread. My laptop has an Apple sticker on it, I even sent it in for a hardware repair to HP once with Snow Leopard installed on a dual boot. I still chuckle at what the workers must have thought. I didn't get arrested or anything for that though. I think that part of the EULA is basically just to scare people from putting OSX on their Windows laptop and going to the Apple store to mess around with people. Like what they did here: Have you heard of anyone ever getting arrested or in trouble for jailbreaking their iDevices? If they crack down on that, they'll crack down on OSX86/Hackintoshers I think. I doubt both of those will ever happen though. Cheers, Proxin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fatnurse Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 Who cares!!! really who cares about the EULA!! Ive got a G4, a G5, a macbook, a macbook pro, an iphone 3gs and Ive built myself a quad Hac and Im buying an iPad next week (ive also had a G3 and a Ti powerbook), I think Ive given apple enough cash (and will probably continue to do so) to be able to install OS X on one of my computers thats not a frigging apple branded one.
