When did I say I haven't seen OSX? I said that it hasn't been my primary desktop.
I had it running is MS Virtual Server, and on hardware. A friend of mine had it running on a dell laptop. The core is BSD, it isn't like there is anything amazingly special about the hardware, it is the same commodity parts used by everybody else. In fact I even posted info on this list when I did it. The first builds before apple was shipping the hardware were compiled to run on standard intel based systems in their labs. They had been working on it long before the approached intel about it. They hadn't decided initially about which brand to go with, but they were porting everything so it would be ready to ship as soon as the deal was inked. Here is some more info about it: http://wiki.osx86project.org/wiki/index.php/Main_Page http://www.i-hacked.com/content/view/202/42/ So yes, you can get OSX to install on any intel based system. You just have to try. > -----Original Message----- > From: Dave l [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Tuesday, March 20, 2007 8:02 PM > To: CF-Community > Subject: Re: New MacBook Pro 15! > > "How so?
