Install OS X on Intel PC’s
Yesterday Tivo-Guy messaged me telling me he was able to install and run OS X Tiger on one of his machines at home. Tivo-Guy unlike us regular geeks is a Super Geek who can turn a kitchen blender into a computer if he wanted to. So I decided to share a link on how to setup OSX to work on your PC in a language us regular geeks can understand. [Link]

Dear Mark,
Aha..that’s right OS X for intel. It was first released to developers and could only work on the special computer Apple gave to developers. The OS needed to check first to see that a chip was present on the computer before running. Hackers were able to crack the code and now it runs on regular intel computers… or so you think.
There are different schools of thought.. but most Apple geeks will tell you that this was a calculated move By Apple. They could have made the crack harder by getting the chip called upon several times during running…but they didn’t.
Something tells me they want Windows users to taste OS X.
Truly,
Misguided
