chiliMac Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 FYI... Fry's has a sale on the MSI 945 Saturn Barebone System for $89 - $20 rebate = total cost $69. Looking at the specs on this system, it looks like it would be pretty compatible with running OSx86. Here is a link to the specs: http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=pr...;maincat_no=134 It uses a Realtek ALC888 for audio and a Realtek 8111B LAN port. Throw in a CPU, memory, optical and hard drive and you can have a Mac clone for cheap. It has integrated graphics but if you want, throw in an inexpensive nVidia card. I don't have any personal experience with this particular system, but I have installed OSx86 on other systems with the same chipsets with success. For the price, it looks pretty good...

Danyel Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Hi chiliMac: I bought and custom-built my MSI mPC 915 about two years ago. I'm *very* happy with my system and recognizes all the hardware natively with Myzar 10.4.6. I was able to update with Mac dot Nub to 10.4.10 few weeks ago, and then 10.4.11 yesterday. MSI makes great PC's and I leave my computer on all the time. I haven't tried Leopard yet. MSI mPC 915 Danyel's OSx86 Page Danyel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
