DocJollyWood Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 Let me start by saying I'm not interested in buying a Macbook. If I were, I would get one. So lets save all the "For laptops you're better off to just get a real Macbook" posts. Thanks for your understanding. Now, with that out of the way -- I'm not overly spec nor feature crazy. My only requirements are as follows: Wireless must work without additional hardware or patches Sound needs to work (I'd rather not patch, but if you can point me to the right one that will work) If it's a dual core machine I want both cores working That's it my friends! Money isn't the biggest deal to me either. If you put a fair price on the machine in question, and it does what I want, we can probably come to an agreement. Obviously, the more features that work with as few hassles as possible, the wider my wallet will open -- but I do understand that this is a hacking community, and I'm not opposed to doing a little work to help myself out either. I'm not looking for special treatment only FAIR treatment. If you want to deal, post what you have here in this thread and if I'm interested I'll reply and request permission to take our talks into PM. Thanks in advance!

SticMAC™ Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 Youre not going to get away without doing some patching! My wireless works by merely adding the Device Id to the info.plist! So least you can go for HP DV6716EZ or similar, gives you 15,4" wide with lots of added toys! I reallly went out of my way to try and buy a decent macbook but between doggey dealer on e-bay and a less than understanding Apple Shop, I opted for this one!

DocJollyWood Posted April 29, 2008 Author Share Posted April 29, 2008 Out of curiosity were you saying you want to deal a HP DV6716EZ or were you just offering some friendly advice on what I may want to watch for? My apologies, but it wasn't clear. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macshiba Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 People who aren't willing to learn how to so some simple hacking or custom driver install do not deserve to have a Hackintosh. Go buy a {censored} Mac if you're too damn lazy to do something for yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't say I wasn't willing, I said that I didn't want to do much of it. Besides why do you care what I want or don't want? I would think it's none of your business!

bluedragon1971 Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 I just listed my laptop on eBay. Check the thread I just started. It should meet your needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
