running mac os x on a px

Postby samike » Sun 17 Jun, 2007 10:54 pm

I've read articles saying this can be done. If so, what is the easiest way to do it. Are their any hidden dangers to doing this? I'm a newbie, so a simple explanation would be appreciated.

A "px"? You mean PC? If you do, it's illegal to run Mac OS X on non-Apple hardware. And I believe discussion of the said procedure is forbidden on this message board.

The easiest way is to buy a real Mac. They are a lot cheaper than you think.

e.g. Tidus/Shdow Angel/Tomomi's machine.

IMHO, don't bother. Compatibility with Mac OS X and standard PCs isn't ready for prime-time yet.
