Yeah - really really well. Boots up in 13 seconds I think :D Stable as anything - had it installed for a few months, and it has only crashed once as I recall. Yeah, it's really good.

Cool. If you need any help, just PM me. Don't be worried if some of your hardware is incompatible at the start. There are direvers you will need to download etc, that I can help you with :)

Ok, I'm gonna come clean with you guys... The Mac you think you've been seeing, technically isn't a mac. It's my PC in the sig. Running OS X.

I'm sorry... :o

Wow Rambo! How could you do such a thing? :P

lol. I'm actually running OS X as well. I'm emulating it with Pear PC :D

It's so nice having a Mac on a PC. Without actually buying the Mac :rolleyes:

Yeah, but I'm running this natively on my hardware. So, I turn on my PC, and up pops OSx86. No emulation or anything. :)

But I'm glad I'm not the only one doing it here. :D

I have tried to get PearPC working but I could not figure it out. How is it done anyway (or can you not tell me this:D )?

Using PearPC isn't good at all. Everything is emulated = much slower. You should partition your Hard disk, download OSx86, and install it to that partition. Voila. Fully native OS X. :)

How much space does OSX need to run on? and how much did you partition your drive for?
 
newsgroups or a torrent

i was running it for a while, but the performance really took a hit on multiple displays since i use multiple video cards, opposed to a single 3-display card

really makes the 3d dekstop lag a lot

and to keep it legal

i despise icons, if you can't tell

The only reason it is emulated slower is because it thinks it is using a Power PC Processor running at 533Mhz with 256MB of RAM...but I reprogrammed it into thinking it's running on an intel core duo at 1.8 Ghz with 1GB of RAM :D So it runs pretty well :)

I would still recommend you try OSx86.

It looks good to me. Just one question, where can I download it?

EDIT: Nevermind, I found it. 4GB! I can't get it because it will not fit on a CD and I don't have a DVD drive. Maybe I'll try an Emulator, yes I know it might be slow.

You don't necessarily need to burn it to a DVD. I wrote a guide for VMWare users here:

http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=11314&st=0&start=0

You can mount the ISO on XP, use VMWare to create a virtual machine which points to a physical partition/hard disk drive on your computer, and tell it to install to that drive. Once it's installed, you can boot it up as if it were installed by a DVD disc. :)
