weaksauce12 Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 I'm looking for a 17" Hackintosh-compatible laptop. I need a real video card, a resolution of 1920x1200, and would prefer a Santa Rosa processor. What should I be looking for in terms of laptop compatibility?

~pcwiz Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 weaksauce12, Check the wiki HCL (wiki.osx86project.org) for 10.5 and check the Portable Computers Section. There are a few ones that are working well in there, although I'm not sure about screen size. P.S. I ordered my hackint0sh parts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weaksauce12 Posted January 5, 2008 Author Share Posted January 5, 2008 ~pcwiz, congrats! Looks like it's gonna be a beast dongiorgio1959, thanks for the tip - I found the Dell guide over at the Genius Bar and it looks like it's going to be updated for Leopard soon, according to the author. It has a few quirks so I'm debating picking one up (for example, you have to sleep/wake the computer to enable both cores). I'll keep my eye on this though...saving $1500 over a 17" MacBook Pro would be awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
