Oziel Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 OSX works flawlessly on my Sony Vaio VGN-FS730, mainly because the hardware matches very closely with the dev machines. VAIOs are also super slim looking and Xbrite screens are amazing The only outstanding problem is the wireless. Hello, could you please tell me, what patch did u use for running the x86 on your Vaio FS730 (10.X.X) ? My brother has one Sony Vaio FS730F an he wants to install it, also which are issues with the wireless , are there any patch to solve this? really appreciated OSX works flawlessly on my Sony Vaio VGN-FS730, mainly because the hardware matches very closely with the dev machines.

REAVER Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 I have a toshiba M200 running with 10.4.9. It's a convertable tablet with a 1.7GHz Pentium, 1GB RAM, NVIDIA Go5200 and an Intel 2915a/b/g. I've got wireless working, although without WEP or WPA, the display is running at the full resolution of 1400x1050, I'm working on getting QE to work. The tablet functionality and pen is fully supported with ink.
