Toni15 Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 Hello Everyone. I got a laptop a few days ago. I currently run Windows Vista Ultimate. I am some what satisfied but I also want to try Mac on it. I have used it at school and its pretty cool. First of, i might be a newbie. Don't really know difference between Mac OS tiger/leopard! I'll list my computer specs under and if you could please help me choose the right OS X, Kaleyway AMD on PC or else.I'll have to multi-boot too. while Vista is on the same Hard Drive. If any questions please feel free to ask. -Any Help will be greatly appreciated! Thank-You!

Exiled Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 from the looks of it you should be good to run leopard. I would just use the kalyway install disk for AMD processors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's intel wireless forget it. Also FYI it's frowned upon to start a secondary thread when your first one could just be bumped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
