Garbage

God of Mistakes...
Successfully installed Lion on my Dell XPS 14. (L401X)

What works:
Graphics (native resolution) (Used Multibeast to install nVidia kext)
Bluetooth (works out of box)
Trackpad and Keyboard (It was working initially, but then it stopped after first reboot. Had to install PS/2 mouse and keyboard kext from Multibeast to get it working).
Ethernet (works out of box)
USB (works out of box)
Webcam

What doesn't work:
Sound (No suitable device found)
Wireless

I am still trying to figure out how to get sound and wireless working. I will have to get it working, otherwise there is no point using Mac on laptop then. :p

I followed following tutorial to create Mac OS Lion bootable USB.
tonymacx86 Blog: UniBeast: Install Mac OS X Lion Using an All-In-One Bootable USB Drive

Additionally, as I had to install this on a MBR disk, I applied Lion MBR patch.

If anybody can help getting sound and wireless working, I would appreciate.

Following is my system configuration
> Mainboard : Dell 01PNG7
> Chipset : Intel P55
> Processor : Intel Core i7 740QM @ 1733MHz
> Physical Memory : 4096MB (1 x 4096 DDR3-SDRAM )

Please check if your configuration is supported here - HCL 10.7 Seeds - OSx86

Even if it's not there, don't worry. Best way to check it to create a bootable USB drive and check for yourself. :)

You mean like these?
Dell Inspiron One 2310 Review < All-In-One Desktops Review, Price, Features, Specs, User Opinions < PC World India Reviews< PCWorld.in
Lenovo IdeaCentre B300 Review < All-In-One Desktops Review, Price, Features, Specs, User Opinions < PC World India Reviews< PCWorld.in

As for the OS, not sure what's that difficult really, some different keyboard shortcuts, a dock, and other stuff. It's not really that different, if anything it's a lot more straightforward and intuitive than WIndows 7.

What I can understand is :

1. Your Mac has Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard ( Operating System )

2. To Browse files do any one of the following :

a) Left Click on the smiling face icon ( on the extreme left of the dock ), this will open the Finder, you can now browse all the files using finder.

b) From the panel click on GO menu item and from the pull down menu select the folder you want to open.

3. Thirdly, if you want to download new applications, you can use the Apple App Store or go to macupdate.com and download whatever you need.
Hope this helps you.

Thanks but are apps for MAC same as Software for Windows (Freeware Shareware etc)

I thought apps the specific word is used for utilities, games, lifestyle etc etc in only android, iphone, nokia, ipad etc, in windows games are called games, and utilities are just called softwares.. so got confused
