It isn’t about that. It’s about the PCs having myriad configurations that no OS can support without resulting in the Windows-style crashin’, hangin’ and just plain suckin’. That’s what sucks about PCs—the dizzying variety. Sounds good on paper; sucks in practice. Plus, PCs are noisy, Macs are not.
My point was that Mac OS X performs best when coupled with Apple’s own hardware and I, therefore, do not encourage these hackint0sh users. Not only do they spoil the experience for themselves, they end up blaming Mac OS X. It’s not about the Apple logo and the shiny exterior—it’s about the hardware and software being specifically designed to work in tandem.
again, it shows your rather ignorant attitude to the third world. PC bilders use their brains for getting a system. And the rewards are obvious. Great looks. Insane performance. But if a n00b tries to build a PC, he would obviously goof up.
About the NO OS CAN SUPPORT part, you forget that there is a certain OS kernel by the name Linux and there is a certain type of OS called Distro. I don't experience any crashin, hangin or plain suckin. Infact, I get better performance than most other people on a similar rig. I know many who use a Distro on a rig better than or as good in configuration as a mac, and get much much much better performance.
And apples
own hardware ? They just borrow common designs and use them. A Mac is nothing but a PC in pretty exterior. And a STANDARD PC, since it comes with often generic parts.
Your so-called hackintosh is just more closely configured on the mac lines.
