Where to get started?

[squierjosh]

I've been doing research and there's just SO MUCH information out there about what works, what doesn't, etc. Then I find something that works, and it's discontinued. Could anyone point me to a motherboard or a barebones system on newegg.com that might work? Or would a new eMachines or HP or some other model work right off the shelf with the right install DVD? (such as iatko or something similar?)

Thanks,

Thanks for replying, but it really is more of the same. A list of some outdated/unavailable hardware, followed by three pages of suggestions. :(

My advice is to find a motherboard you like, then search the osx86 community for it. If it works, pick it up. Then do the same for other hardware. The motherboard being the most important.
