The requirements for the iPhone SDK that is used as an Apple Developer for the iPhone is OSX 10.5 on an Intel Mac.

 

I don't have money for a Mac right now, and every pc I own is AMD.

 

I know you can successfully be an Apple Developer creating apps for the iPhone on an Intel Hackintosh...

 

question is: will it work on an AMD Hackintosh?

and what about in a Virtual Machine on AMD, because I'd rather not have to dual boot especially when my Windows installation & all of my files/data is on a software Raid Array...

 

Any help is extremely appreciated!

The iPhone SDK will run on a AMD hackintosh installation without a problem. I have it up and running on my AMD desktop and it's stable and performs well.

 

I also tried to setup a 10.5.7 installation on VMware for Windows XP with the intention of doing some development with Xcode/iPhone SDK there but never got it to run stable and performant enough as a liable alternative to a hackintosh or native Apple hardware. So summary it works but I wouldn't recommend it for day to day use as a dev-system. I also tried to run my OSX-VMDKs under Sun's VirtualBox for Windows. Didn't even boot properly.
