I am new to this Hackintosh thing and OS X in general.
I currently have 2 Computers running VMWare Workstation 6.5.
One is my desktop w/
AMD 5000+ X2 BE
4GB DDR2-800 OCZ Platinum
nVidia 9800GTX
GA-M57SLI-S4 Rev.2
250GB WD SATAII
XP SP3 Pro as the Host OS
I also have my laptop w/
AMD Turion TL-60
2GB DDR2-533
160GB HD
ATI X1200
With Ubuntu 8.10 as the Host OS
I would like to virtualize OS X or I can try to install it to a spare 120GB WD IDE Drive I have in my desktop.
I'm basically looking for some pointers and which version of OS X I should use. Can it be done?
