I have built a couple OSX86 computers (different versions and different hardware) and I probably reinstalled the OS about 40 times total in order to get it to work. I made small changes with each installation. I also spent about 50 hours Googling my problems. Most people are not that committed and will probably give up.
The tools you have to work with in OSX are limited compared to Windows. The programs I missed most are the equivalents to Acronis Disk Manager and True Image.
Playing around with OSX86 is fun for people who:
- like to tinker around with computers.
- have a lot of free time.
- have patience.
- like to use Google
- are curious about the MAC OSX
- have an spare computer system to commit to the project.
If you want to attempt this, you should try to make your all components Intel if possible (which is impossible). The hardware to look at are the onboard sound and onboard network.
If you are a gamer (like a lot of the people at this forum), you should remove your latest gaming card and go back to onboard video or a basic nvidia card.
