  • I really like your monitors could you please tell me their name?

  • @onliolfs Dell UltraSharp 2408WFP's. I love them!

  • What about updates? Is it running like an actual Mac where you can install updates through Apple update without hiccups or problems? I know you mentioned in your webpage guide that you have the occasional glitch.

  • @KadMac25 That's the one hiccup with Hackintosh's. You have to be careful with OS updates. (Like moving from 10.6.6 to 10.6.7). You'd better wait until there is a new release of MultiBeast before you do the upgrade. The guys over at TonyMacx86 are FAST though...and the updates are out within a week or two of the release. Other updates are fine (like Java updates, Final Cut Pro updates, etc)

  • Awesome guide! Could I get the bluetooth keyboard and magic trackpad to work with this build?

  • @KadMac25 Thank you!!! I haven't tried it but I'm sure you could. Just get a Bluetooth card or dongle.

  • Thank you, very amusing and useful! 

  • Great vi man. Iam really tempted to go buy your Mobo. I have all the same parts as you like the 970, the 5870 and ssd....

  • @mattmintun Not any bluetooth card, it must be either a compatible usb dongle of a modified Apple bluetooth module.

  • guess what, I have found a website and i saved £500! It's called PCTitan!

  • question (might be easy but I am not sure) when I am finish with building the Hackintosh, how to get all my memory from my Macbook Pro to the Hack, did it once before but I want to make sure before I do it...

    could be dumb question, but only the dummies don't ask the questions

  • EXCUSE ME ASSHOLE. u can get an amazing dell with sam specs for half the price and actually have costumer support. It is illegal cause u violate user end agreement.

  • @jjhaywood Not illegal and it can be upgraded. Dells are crap.
