I don't think these guys did any research when building these systems. I built a "Hackintosh" about 2 months ago and so far everything works perfect and I have even upgraded from 10.5.1 to 10.5.2. using the Apple updater and my machine is still working. The only issue I have had is that my mic/line in does not work, big deal since I'll never use that.

I hope these guys have not ruined the osx86 scene by making this so public. In any case I got a nice fast and cheap FC Pro HD machine.

The article's wrong; the fans in that system are the same as Apple's: loud, obnoxious, and you can't turn them off.

I sense a disturbance in the Apple force. Jobs must assemble the mightiest of Jedi... the lawyers.

Am I the only one who reads the title of this post as "Gadget site gets hands dirty with Pac Man clone" the first time they see it?

Anyone want to start a death watch on how long until Apple shuts them down? I just hope this doesn't screw up stuff too badly for the OSx86 community. I was hoping to build a hackintosh later on.

Why would anybody want to buy one of these? Honestly. You get a half-a..ed machine with a hacked OS.... please --- what a joke. If you want an Apple go buy one --- from what I hear it is worth the purchase (hardware wise).

I myself would never own one (Apple or this Apple-hack) --- but they do work as intended.

I love all the fan complaints, as if no one at any one of these "tech" sites knows how to change a fan out of a case.
