I just knew that there are some projects going on on getting an OSX X86 into Intel based PC/notebook. Yeah, we heard that Apple already jump into Intel processors for their Macbook Pro, so the MacOS X is also capable of running on x86 AKA Intel based machine - ur PC/notebook.

Google it, and you will find that there lots of hacked OSX x86 applications to be used after installing these nice GUI OS into our PC/notebook.

Problem is;
1. Anyone of you ever tried it?
2. Any problems after installing it?
3. Is it slow? Is it fast?
4. Does it supports nVidia GPUs? (i know MacOS is running on FreeBSD but can it be installed?)
5. Anybody has it? I will buy the 10.4.3 or 10.4.4 ISO from him/her?

Of course, this topic is for educational/research purpose. Not to get Mac lovers angry but hey, we can choose what to be tested on or PC/notebook thumbup.gif , right?

people have been running Mac OS X on Intel notebooks before the MacBook Pro was released. I personally saw and used an Acer and a Fujitsu machine running Mac OS X.

So far, I think only Intel Integrated chips and ATi works well.
