Hey there, ive been reading about this cause I want to put MAC OS X on my computer, I'm currently running windows xp but Im curious. If I restart my whole PC and when its time to use an OS, can I just use MAC OS X? PC Specs: AMD Athlon 64bit 3200+ 2.21GHz 1GB RAM GeForce 5200FX Really anything else I should list?
Mac operating systems run on mac only whilst mac systems would allow you to switch to winxp using 'bootcamp'. Well thumbs up for great mac!
This isn't one of my areas of knowledge. But a quick google search brought up this result.... http://uneasysilence.com/os-x-proven-hacked-and-running-on-an-ordinary-pc/ The text in the link sounds promsing
Mac is designed to run on mac hardware so such guide previosly shown doesn't prove anything to me instead, I would believe that to run osx on a pc, osx would have to be modified in order to support the hardware and run properly on a pc. The best thing I would think of would be emulation. Another thing Mac only supports WINDOWS(PC) on MAC but not OSX(MAC) on PC
Haha then can someone tell me a reasonable price? 19" HD LCD Monitor Samsung SyncMaster940 AMD Athlon 64 3200+ 2.21Ghz 1 GB Ram 1 Seagate Barracuda 200GB Hard Drive 1 Maxtor 120GB Hard Drive GeForce 5200+ 550Watt Power Supply by BFG MSI K8N Neo 3 Platnium Socket 754 Wireless D link Adapter LG Dual Layer DVD Burner
Sounds like a standard sytem 1year old or a little more with a good monitor, would cost around 850€ Then If you have a good branded ram like corsair or kingston with ddr2 add something like 120€ extra
OSX will indeed run on a standard pc , true there are some patches and tweaks that must be applied for it to run however. http://wiki.osx86project.org/wiki/index.php/Main_Page that page has prity much all the info you may need.
There are versions of Mac OSX floating around out there for x86, in both Intel & AMD versions. Find the one for your processor type and your already on your way. OSX86project will help with the rest
Forget to include this but it is also a very good link to check out. http://www.profit42.com/index.php/2007/02/07/osx-1048-on-a-normal-intelamd-computer/
