Driver support for run-of-the-mill x86 will, speculatively, be bad, but I'm sure driver support for the the Intel Mac hardware[1] should be excellent. Assuming, of course, that the ISO being shared is from a legitimate copy of Mac OS X Tiger for the Intel Mac (x86). [1] http://www.jasbone.com/blog/archives/2005/07/multibooting_in.html Actually, more than being excited for Mac OS X on run-of-the-mill x86 boxes, I'm really excited about Intel Mac hardware that I've been reading is really fast and I'm wagering, excellently engineered. As far as hardware support is concerned, Linux on PowerPC Macs is okay, but I'm hoping that Linux on Intel Macs will be even better.
