dogbert Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 I'd recommend a 386SX with good 4 MB of RAM and a solid 80 MB hard drive disk Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/727-recommend-me-hardware/#findComment-4410 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't understand why people would buy computers to run THIS os x version on it. The actual developer version of mac os x for x86 machines is not supported and will never be updated. It is missing a lot of drivers for peripheral hardware. Edit: There is no machine that would run OS X natively and "can play games good in windows" because the only fully supported graphic chip is this onbaord Intel 9something. I doubt that this chip is a good choice for running modern games.

Katch Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 One of these... If you buy it in kit form and build it yourself you'll save a few $$$s Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/727-recommend-me-hardware/#findComment-4437 Share on other sites More sharing options...

anarchy99 Posted August 21, 2005 Author Share Posted August 21, 2005 One of these... If you buy it in kit form and build it yourself you'll save a few $$$s <{POST_SNAPBACK}> you know thats not funny i asked a perfectly acceptable question on a forum so i could get a answer if that {censored} could do what i asked then alright but since its not even close why post Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/727-recommend-me-hardware/#findComment-4483 Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogbert Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 you know thats not funny i asked a perfectly acceptable question on a forum so i could get a answer <{POST_SNAPBACK}> you can easily answer the question by yourself. there is plenty of information all over the web and in these forums, and therefore your question is completely redundant. you proved to be incapable of using most elementary functions and therefore you failed miserably.
