Which Quad-Core 17'' Laptops support hackint0sh?
Hello
Could I please have some recommendations of 17'' Quad-Core Laptops capable of becoming hackint0sh's? Thanks in advance, Panarchy |
I've heard good news about this:

Hmm... HPs then.
I am however looking for something a little beefier, http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/au/en...8-4098688.html For an extra 10℥... Does that laptop support becoming a hackint0sh? Please tell me if it does... Thanks in advance, Panarchy PS: Looking for anything over 2.4GHz in a Quad-Core 17'' Laptop |
You'll have problems with ATI Mobility cards. Not that I have them, I'm having problems with Intel x4500 :(, but netkas' site and insanelymac are full of all sorts of questions regarding those.
Better choose a notebook with NVidia card, and check the usual forums for confirmed "success stories" about the graphics. I've installed Snow Leopard on a desktop machine with i7, so that's working without any problems (Hazard distro). Also, there are no kexts for Intel 5100 WiFi. |
Thanks for the heads up, I'll see what I can find in the beefier laptops.

Would it be better to get a MBP 17" instead?

Unfortunately there is no quad-core in there range;

To confirm, I'm looking for ones with at least 2 hours battery life. |
