jtwh20 Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 I must say, i am VERY impressed with how fast this PC is under OSX as compared to XP. I have a Powermac G4 1ghz and an iBook G4 1.4ghz - This makes them look slooooow If Apple was to offer OSX for regular PC's I would buy it!

TTT Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 jtwh20, I have an Optiplex 270 2.8ghz but i am unable to get OS X running... how did you do it? The installer installs everything just fine but wont boot, it wont even boot off of the dvd when I do the rd=disk0s2, I get some kernel panic or something. During the install I choose "SSE2"... am I missing something?
