Install Leopard on your Hackintosh the easy way!

January 26, 2008 at 07:53:00 AM, by David Schulman Rating: 4 out of 5

New installers include every necessary patch and fix at your fingertips

If you've ever wanted to run Apple's beautiful yet functional OSX but lacked a Macintosh to do it on, now is better than ever to dive into the world of the Hackintosh. Since their switch over to Intel x86 processors getting Mac software up and running on your own Intel box has never been easier to accomplish.

Where as installs in the past used to rely on a somewhat complicated knowledge of the command line and applying kernel patches many of the new hacked install DVDs of Leopard include easy step by step instructions for getting your Mac box up and running (granted you know where to find the proper software).

A word of caution though from the editors over at Lifehacker:

NOTE: I can only vouch for this method on the build I detailed in the original post, but others have had a lot of luck with other boards, as well. If you're thinking of starting from scratch and want to follow exactly how I did it, check out the sections labeled The Hardware and The Build on my original guide. If you want to a better idea of how well it runs, check out how it benchmarks compared to a Mac Pro and MacBook Pro. If you've got your system together, here's how it works.
