phanguy Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 apple is a bit on the expensive side. but if you really want to do it right then just buy the legit computer. cause building your own is great, but there are also any number of problems that can come up.

BJMoose Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 Do a search for Aqua-mac and take a look at his/her system. It's about as close to perfect as one is going to get with OSX86...and it comes with instructions. My guess is that if you are building an ultimate Hackintosh, to be used solely as a mac, by the time you get it to perfection, it will be pushing towards the price of a Mac Pro. So if you don't already have a mac, I'd spend the money on a real mac. If you're building a super pc first and want to have something unique (outside of this community) that you've created yourself to have the best of both worlds in one box, then I'd spend the money on maxing out a hackintosh.
