UPDATE 2: The AcerBook Pro 2.0 has been released! Here is a video of it:

This new revision brings many advances in performance and is fully compatible with Mac OS X Leopard. It also sports a completely new and even more sexy look!

UPDATE: This laptop has just been upgraded with a 1.2GHz Pentium III processor, 384MB RAM, and a new 80GB hard drive. No noticeable increase in Mac OS X performance has been detected. (And, I kinda busted the heatsink while installing the new CPU so this thing now overheats like CRAZY!!!)

Introducing the new Apple AcerBook Pro! Here is Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger running on a 7-year-old Acer Aspire 1200, and it was the slowest thing EVER. The laptop has the following specs:
Processor: Intel Pentium III 1GHz
Memory: 256MB PC133
Hard Drive: 20GB 4200RPM (almost dead)
Video: S3 Graphics Twister 8MB
Optical Drive: 8x DVD-ROM
Networking: Accton 10/100 Ethernet, Atheros 802.11b/g Wireless, 56k Modem
Battery: Lithium Ion, 2hr Life
If anyone knows how to speed this thing up, please tell me. When I called AppleCare about this issue, their response was:
"So...uh...how are you running OS X on your Acer Aspire sir??!? Sir, now...now you know that you have called AppleCare, right??"

Warning: This will probably be the most boring video you have ever seen. It is very long and boring, so please just enjoy my funny annotations :) (at least, I think they are funny; correct me if I am wrong). And, enjoy the music!

And by the way, Apple SUCKS.

i like that laptops style its old but kinda seems new you know?

[CompalN38N2]

Yea, I have to agree with you on that one. Many people at my school mistaken this laptop as brand new, until they see the Pentium III logo...

It was the best laptop available when it was released back in 2002.

[badsaddamdotnet]

yeah.....pear pc isnt the best. and to run mac os on a p3 natively is next to impossible.

[CompalN38N2]

Do you know any better emulators or host operating systems?

@harp0289 song name is kenny g..

[nelizmastr]

more like acerbooknoob instead of pro. since its not really pro, due to the low system resources.

[honam1021]

Is it possible to run Mac OS X 10.4 with Pentium ii(or even Pentium MMX)?

[shadow444222]

@osnick12 mac os x is a 32 bit os.

[osnick12]

WeW...I never thought that .. there's a 32 bit Mac OsX...

Piece of Garbage

@CompalN38N2 Could I at least run OS 9 on a similar notebook (a little more than half the clock speed of yours?)
