My Bad , mac can be installed on Intel Platforms ..... I was not aware of the latest Leopard that can run on an Intel platform

There is also a hacked version of Mac going by the name of Iatkos ... it was nt made to run on an Intel based platform , but was modified illegally to do so ...its also known as 'Hackintosh'

So, yes there are some who are using Mac here and yes also, we can run Mac on a PC platform.
Yes i know ...pls refer above post .... i never said mac was made to run on a washing machine ....

I meant 'Intel boards' by the word 'Normal PC' ...and yes i know i was wrong

One query. Has anyone been able to successfully update their OS's after installing hackintosh? Update facility must be there, else it will be vulnerable to bugs. Please enlighten me.

once you have installed iatkos on a non-mac,you will suddenly realise what a waste of time the entire thing has been!!

the look and feel of a real mac can never match the one of this version.you will be sorely disappointed...
forget abt updating, i hardly kept it for 1 2 days! removed it completely..

actully its name is Mac Book Pro........
and as i said the difference is only between in hardwares not the OS's........Apple is only known for its hardwares not for its OS coz there is no other legal platform was available for mac.............they sell the hardware only nd people have to but the OS ultimately coz others OS's wont work on that machine..........

BTW i'm also planning to Buy a Mac Book Pro 17"

hey friends now i'll be back in 10 mins. going out for a sutta.............

hi all i have recently got the Mac 13.3 inch laptop(lattest one)
configuration
intel 2 ghz core2 8400 processor
160 gb hdd
2GB ram

One thing i can tell u it lives upto its cool factor the laptop is very sleek and sexy.When i play a song in this Mac laptop i am not able to figure it out where the hell is the speakars after so many days of research i think the speakers are behind keyboard

The layout of the keyboard keys is very good.
Mac OS X is good one but getting used after using Windows is quite difficult

All the applications has one common menu when that window is active

since the last 4 years I am using MAC in office..... I never faced any problems like file corrupt, machine hang, viruses, it works like "makhan".... that's why I recently bought MAC book pro..... really, it is amazing experience working on mac.
