Well guys, i'm mouting the new Box for run OS X, and today with the sneak peek of the Leopard i'm thinking if this box, will go run the Leopard correctly, i know than is very early for have an answer, but we can have hope, than it will run in hackintosh?

 

We can study and discuss, what would be the best configuration for it, ok community? We go all work for than everybody be able of run Leopard in your machines, and be happy with the best plataform of the world.

It seems, first requirement is 64bit CPU, also I think it was implemented SSE4 in woodcrest....thats it in a nutshell

I really don't think that apple would screw all the proud new owners of the macbook and macbook pro this soon. pretty sure 10.5 will be 64-bit raedy but will still run on 32-bit!

Will be? I find than the Darwin is very good, but if it works in hackintosh, the Apple can switch it without problems.

 

Today is very hard you not buy a processor than works with 64-bits, then i find than all hackintoshs will work fine with Leopard.

I forsee a hybrid Tiger/Leopard operating system. At least until Leopard is comletely hacked. Most of the new appllications on Leopard can be run in Tiger without the slightest problem it seems. I'm going to try to install a few apps via Pacifist.

 

I really hope the Leopard kernel is hackable. I don't want to keep using Tiger's 10.4.4 kernel.

with the release of leopard only around the corner early in the first quarter I've been hesitant to buy a macbook. It doesn't make any sense at all for apple to abandon their proud new intel based systems though, without making the new OS 100% compatible with the existing hardware. I could see issues for those with ppc based systems and any upgrade to 10.5 for them but doubt it for x86 systems.

 

I would look into EFI support on a new board also. it seems like in the future you may need the ability to flash the EFI with a hacked rom to boot into osx. Just something to consider.

As indicated from the Apple Site:

 

From G3 to Xeon, from MacBook to Xserve, there is just one Leopard. So if you get your hands on a real mac, you can be using the developer copy they gave out at WWDC. Only a matter of time until that is ported to non-apple hardware.

That's really hard to believe. If that's the case I will urge my wife to ask for a refund for her MacBook (hardly 3 months old) immediately. ;)

According to Apple, Tiger is 64 bit. http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/64bit/ How us 32 bit users can run it then remains a mystery, but it might then be possible to run Leopard on a Hackintosh.

No it's not 64 bits *only* . There will be support for powerpc processor (G3 and G4). Those are 32 bits processors.

 

As if Apple wouldn't make an OS for the recently released iMac, macbook and macbook pro. Especially as Apple is known to make applications that only work with the latest OS
