because when you upgrade an old mac, you only upgrade the processor or ram, or maybe, pci cards. big deal. I to, have torn down, did magic tricks and rebuilt a pc, for a living mind you and you donb't see me wripping my mac a part to see if I could do it. it just doesn't interest me.

As mac users we know the reason why mac os and mac hw run so well is because they were written for each other. now, if he is so pressed on running a mac on a pc, then why not go get osm 9 and baseless rom and a couple of other items and have a litteral mac on your indows pc???

In an effort to add something educational here, what is the difference between what he is suggesting, and say upgrading an older mac to a newer one? Others have done this on this list or have referenced as much. building a pc from parts is not uncommon, so I can understand the spirit of the goal, but not why the idea is such an odd one where macs are concerned?
Just wondering,

You might save 200 dollars or so, but what about that warranty? What about all the time and effort? Sheesh, oh, and you have to buy the us.

hello I was looking around on the osx86project.org site and it mentioned building a mac pc out of intel parts.
1. there any one doing this currently?
2. if this is possible, would it run tiger, or would I have to result to using hacked version of osx?
am trying to find out the cheapest way to get my mac legally oviously
if I can build my own using parts, then purchase tiger I would be saving 200 bucks or so.
let me know
thanks
hank
