Core2Duo PC + mac ?

bhaskar15 · 02-02-2007, 03:41 AM

Can this setup run a mac ?
Core 2Duo
Asus P5B
2 gb ram
geforce 7950GT
17" lcd.
I saw mac on Intel pcs, so this should run mac right ?

Run a mac. By a run for it's money, yes. that would kill a mac dead.
Also, I know what you mean, but it would run osx86 very well.

theoretically yes, but you will still need to get a cracked x86 version, meaning technically illegal, copy of Mac OSX, in iso form. It should run but its not guirenteed. check the Mac OSX x86 Wiki to find out more info. They have a long list of compatible hardware combinations. My random setup worked, it lagged a little because you have to do some configuring and debugging to get it to work right which I wasn't really wanting to do.

i have got an (illegally cracked) mac os x tiger, so it theorotically should run ?
umm, cheked out incompatible hardware on x86 mac wiki, doesn't show any of this setup.
Maybe a test drive will do the job, after doing so will reply .
