I'm looking to build my first one of these. i have a Mac Mini but it's too crippled and inflexible for my needs. I was hoping to get a little advice on what to buy. Here are my needs:

 

- A motherboard where all the components work (USB, SATA, IDE, LAN, Sound, FW). Don't mind doing a patch or two. Preferably Intel 775. Nothing fancy, maybe in the 100.00 range.

 

- Video card that will knock out 1920x1080. Won't be doing any gaming

 

- Can I use any SATA Hard Drive I want? If I put in 2 of them, what are they, just 2 volumes on the desktop?

 

- Can i use any burner I want?

 

- Finally, can I use Parallels on one of these and expect all the componets to work?

 

Thanks!

How about:

1. Search the Forum. You will find tons of information about what works and what now.

2. Have a look into the Wiki or the HCL http://wiki.osx86project.org/wiki/index.php/HCL_10.5.0 There you will also find what works and what not.
