The Subject is not allowed here I suppose !!!

GX earned his 2nd or rather 3rd ban because of discussing this here at this forum

Apple TOS explicitely prohibits the use of Mac on anything but apple hardware. So Hacintosh is illlegal and any discussions pertaining to osx86 isnt allowed over here.
I am reopening this thread since it strictly doesnt deal with methods of hacking osx.

Thanks buddy. Thieves now continue

do Ex-hackintosh users qualify ?

The most important question is : Who uses it as their primary OS ? And how good/stable is it for day to day usage ?

 

[MetalheadGautham]

Here is what I found about it:

1. No SATA drivers, only IDE ones available
2. Can't use PS/2 Keyboard and mouse
3. Updating OS really a big issue

I am not sure of the first point, weather its been fixed or not. any ideas ?

1.As far as I know Leopard can't be installed on IDE HDD;you need SATA and in some cases(JMicron IDE controller) you also need SATA DVD driver for installation. So Leo is more SATA friendly

2 & 3 valid points

WTF is this

None of those points has nothing to do with Mac. Those may be hacintosh issues.

And since Apple don't provide any demo; I had to setup a demo myself. Want to make sure I like it and it serves my purpose before I buy one. Honestly, running Hacintosh is no fun.

As said by Cad, both are there.

2. Can't use PS/2 Keyboard and mouse

What? Where di you find that from?

3. Updating OS really a big issue

True.
