lswang , if you want a mac emulator on PC , Just go to PearPC or you could PM me [I am a staffer for PearPC , and I could help you]. PearPC Is a great way to try out OSX , its like having OSX ..............on your PC....aka a mac...Unlike OSX86 , which requires you to have a SSE2 enabled processor , dedicated partitio nand supported hardware. PearPC runs ontop of Windows...

That graphics card can't take wow ...You can still play , dont expect stunning 3D Visuals , as its just it would be okay. I heard that Apple tweaked Intel's GMA 950...to give some boost..Not tooo sure about that as well
Yep , you can run boot camp..Upgrade to 1GB and you're set

you can get lower specs..But it might make your Mac slower or weird..seriously..I dont know why...You might get Kernel Pancis ...etc...In theory its possible
You can get cheap RAMs from UK..If you diy..there are many stores..Just pick a copy of MacWorld Plus or MacWorld , and see it for yourself

Bump the RAM to at least 1.5GB and then it should be okay. The MacBook should do a good job on this

I dont get you...Well you can connect to an External DVD Burner..Just buy any IDE to USB Converter and it should do the trick

It needs to run in Dual-Channel
You need to put 1x 1GB Stick and 1x256MB stick [the same speed] , and then it should work

MBP comes with ATI Radeon Mobility X1600 , which is one of the best graphics card for a lappie [Of course it might get a new makeover]. MacBook has an IGP Graphics card vs MBP - PCI-Express
By the way , once you have tried mac , you willl stick with it. But the problem with me is that I need Windows to play my Star Wars Games [yes there are for macs , but when it comes to modding and installing patches , you would need Windows]. But since mac now runs on x86 platform ....I guess you could still run the game on the mac itself...Hehehehe

macosxhints.com http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?sto...19497&query=AGPThis might help to fix the AGP Problem , open the selected application and look for info.plist , then change the AGP String to PCI

yes of course its universal. you could use it for both the PCs , thats why .mac accounts are meant for. PM me if you want to sign up for Spymac club [30-days Free Club days] , I could offer you that. Its pretty neat and they offer more storage then .mac itself !
