AxelE Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Hi everyone. Because the search engine is out of function, I decided to put up a new thread for my questions. I have two computers: one fujitsu-siemens Scaleo X and a laptop: fujitsu-siemens Amilo 3438G (laptop) I wonder which I shall choose to use as a hackintosh? The best for me would be if I can use the laptop, but I hope u guys can tell me which one that have the best "opportunities" to be a well-working hackintosh. One question more: Which OS, leopard or tiger, is the easiest one to install and get to working? Very grateful for answers //Axel Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/95455-two-computers-which-one-shall-i-choose-as-a-hackintosh/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

mtotho Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 u know newbmac, you could be a bit more help then going to every topic and telling where the HCL is. Those 2 computers are not even on HCL, neither were the three in the last thread u did it on. AxeIE, i would reccomend running those 2 computers into google, finding out which one has the most intel chipsets. If they both do, i personally say the desktop, but u can run a search for those chipsets on this forums, and see how they fair. Post them back here.

AxelE Posted March 25, 2008 Author Share Posted March 25, 2008 Does anyone know which one I shall choose as a hackintosh? Is the mobile processor a problem? I dont care if i must install Tiger instead of Leopard. Which one, tiger or leopard, is easiest to install and to get working fine?

nuditarian Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Neither. Your best bet is finding a Core Duo, Core 2 Duo, or newish Xeon based machine. If you are looking for a simple install. If you are wanting to work at it, use the desktop since you can swap cards if you find that there aren't any drivers for what you have.
