First post so apologies for 'dumb' questions.

Have literally only heard about 'hackintoshing' in the last 20 minutes or so and am thinking about doing it on my current laptop, the aforementioned Acer Aspire 3680.

After a bit of googling i found this

Acer Aspire 3680-2022 • method: iATKoS 4i (10.5.4) • video: GMA950, works no hacking • wifi: Atheros 5006X, works no hacking needed • sound: Azalia Audio, no hacking again • ethernet: Marvel Yukon, works

From the x86 wiki.

I take this to mean that it's possible on my laptop, that along with a you-tube video of someone booting OSX on it, but i'm not entirely sure what the above quote means, or how to go about doing it.

Where do i start?

Thanks loads in advance
