I read the hardware support list, and sound doesn't even work yet in pearpc. It might be more beneficial to buy a used Mac. I have a FreeBSD desktop and an Ibook. OSX is very nice.
Apple actually had a build of OSX that ran on ia32 hardware before 10.0 came out. It was one of the first release canidates. Apple kept it updated through 10.1 supposedly internally in case they needed to switch to Amd or Intel processors. Instead they chose the G4 and G5 chips. Thats how darwin was ported to x86 hardware. (well i think there was a version of next for pc hardware toward the end...)
I'm going to try pearpc since I have 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3 install CDs. :)

Hi,
* MacOS X is based on FreeBSD * there is a x86 kernel for FreeBSD
Does that mean I can buy a copy of MacOS X, download an x86 kernel for freeBSD, do some (or quite alot of) hacking and then get MacOS X running on my PC?
I realize that such hacking would be quite substantial but maybe if I forgot about audio and all that, just how much work would it be? Could it be done?
Sincerly,
Martin Olsson
