Toshiba Satellite A205-7464 (PSAF3U-07300V)

[jamoosh]

Greetings,
I am currently working on installing Mac OS X Leopard (10.5.7) on the above-mentioned laptop. I have not seen a guide on Hackintoshing this model yet, so if anybody has any experience with it you're input would be greatly appreciated.

When completed, I plan to post a guide to benefit the OSX86 Community at large.

I will furnish the specifications of this laptop below. I believe it is possible that this one may be a branded version of a different A205 model.
The largest issue I foresee running into is dealing with the Intel Wireless 3945ABG adapter. If anybody knows how to get this card to work on Mac OS--or alternatively--has a suggestion for a replacement PCI card or USB dongle please provide your feedback. Thanks in advance.
If there is anything I have omitted that you think you should be included, please let me know. Likewise, if there is anything that I've included that you think should be omitted, please let me know.
