    Default Hackintosh

    Has any of you guys tried building a Hackintosh yet?

    For those of you that are unaware, it is possible to run Mac OSx software on PC Hardware now.

    Im doing it as a little project over the next few days. Cant wait to have Logic 8 without having to pay silly money for real mac hardware.

    I do agree somewhat.

    However Intel mac's are PC's. Apple actualy realised there was more power to be had from intel.


    Now I havent used logic yet, and if i love it enough, I will probably go get a real mac, (If my Hack isnt stable)

    im using mac os x tiguer 10.4.11 on my old pc for months...

    my old pc specs:

    P4 3200mhz

    motherboard asrock

    grafic card Nvidia Gforce 7600GT

    2x 160GB ( 1 sata + 1 ide )

    soundcard onboard (AC97)

    everithing runs fine and i use logic pro 8.1 + reason 4.01 + reaktor 5

    but for professional audio use i recomend a firewire sound card , becouse i get overload and midi/audio out of sync sometimes in logic , other softwares run fine but logic its more heavy for the soundcard

    i prefer to use hackintosh in my old machine than XP , xp is more heavy

    hackintosh runs smooth and very fast (even the net is faster)
