If that's the case, I'll just have to make a new partition on my harddrive. Curse AMD. Will definitely give this a whirl - I hope it'll serve as a pleasant introduction to the world of Mac OS X.

Finally it's here I've manage to install it once long time ago but, it still very early so could not find any help for sound and display driver on the net so I revert it back to Windoze, I remember I do take the snapshot of About My Mac.. will try to find back the screenshot, will post it ASAP! BTW, anyone can tell me any Intel mainboard that 100% compatible with x86 OS X? Some ppl recommend D915GUXLX and D915GLVGL but since I'm searching for dual core mainboard, 915 chip not a right choice.. Now I manage to find few list of Intel board: D963FX DG965WH DG965RY DP965LT D975BX D945PSN D945GNT D955XBX Among all above, which one is the most compatible with x86 OS X? Thanks, Cheers

iTunes uses PowerPC Emulation thats the problem and the generic AC-97 Driver , you might have some few bugs
If you're using Dell then you should try Sigmatel drivers

AMD still support, at least for the older version like 10.4.5. For the newer version, i not sure AMD can be supported or not. Just my 2cent. Early this year ago, i install macosx86 in my P4 pc. Too bad for asus mobo, the LAN won't work  Anyway, it's a great try for me cos' i didn't use mac os before. Next year i plan to get macbook pro or other newer macbook

Any suggestions on how much disk space to allocate to the Mac OS X partition? I'm getting Mac OS X 10.4.6 to fiddle with first.
