Hi all,
I've been reading a lot about apple shifting its architechture so that MAC OS X can now be "technically" installed on PCs as well. Also after looking at some successful guides to do so while googling i think i woulod likebto install it.
Can anyone please give the correct instructions as to how should i proceed with the installation and what steps to keep in mind.

Thank in advance,
Rohan

Google for "hackintosh". You'll get lots of guides.

There is nothing called "educational purpose". Its still illegal. Do not ask for help on this topic in this forum. Look elsewhere if you wish to. Topics like these are not permitted for discussion at TDF.

1) Care to explain how is it "nothing ill legal"? Do you haf any "exclusive" rights from Apple to install Mac OS X on a PC?
2) Please refrain from pointing fingers at somebody if you haf no frigging clue about what you are talking!

Why are people so paranoid about piracy in this forum ?
Its prolly just a kid playing around with computer. tweaking around. What harm would possibly come if someone discusses abt OSX86 here ?

Actually I see quite the contrary, people being paranoid about others who take piracy in public forums seriously. ;)

Wasn't allowed back then, won't be now. And "educational purposes", my rear. I want to kill someone for "educational puposes", volunteering?

TDF has a name and reputation to keep up. If they allow piracy discussions on the forum, it will seriously dent their image. They may face legal actions too.

Since "he's just a kid playing around with his computer" we are trying to warn him about it.

legal action ? in India ?? for discussing about piracy ??
Indian government computers run on pirated windows 98 . Nobody cares about piracy in India except those who read warnings against piracy in phoren forums.

Actually technically speaking there is nothing illegal about discussing running mac on x86. Only sharing links or actually installing mac on x86 goes against the T&C. . SO talking about how to do it is not illegal. Ofcourse it may still maybe against this intelligent forums policy, but that doesn't make it illegal.
