|
 |
I never used a Mac and am curious.
Can this be installed on my Windows PC?
I have a typical PC running XP.
Can I swap my hard drive with another and install a Mac OS on that hard drive?
THANKS!

Also see http://www.osx86project.org/ for installing OSX directly w/o running windows. This is possible because MACs -DO- have the same hardware as PC's now (Steve Jobs sold out to Intel). They just require a few hacks to make the software boot.

I hate it when people make bullshit claims.
Macs have been x86-architecture based now for a good two years, and many macs even support the same gfx-boards that the PC does.
YES you can install MACOSX on a PC, but you will have driver issues for some stuff.

THANKS for the reply dominae, I couldn't agree with you more. I wasn't looking to emulate Mac on my PC, I wanted to do a complete install. I'll give it a try, it's not like I've got something to lose, it's a different hard drive... THANKS!
