My New Friend: Mr. Dell MacCrack
I finally got to installing the "modified" x86 OSX on an old laptop hard
drive. I slapped it into my Dell and it actually booted! Very bizarre having
MacOS natively on something not Apple.
Most things seem to work: network is fine, USB is flaky, some video glitches exist, and there are stability issues with some programs. Wireless does not work (as expected), but I was surprised that the volume buttons did. Very good, considering it's not the hardware it was designed for. I'm also quite impressed with the speed.
Nevertheless, I will stick with Linux, which is still more useful to me on the laptop (I like my wireless). It was, however, a worthwhile experiment.
