Mac OS X Running on Non-Apple Hardware
MacBeliever writes "Inevitably, Mac OS X for x86 has been hacked to run on a non-Apple PC. Is this the beginning of the fulfillment of the Dvorak prophecy?" RetrogradeMotion also writes "The OSx86 Project has posted a how-to guide telling how to run OS X on any Windows or Linux-based PC using VMWare." Not 100% corroborated, so ingest with salt.
Wonder what they're up to today?
Garage Band at my finger tips....
Putting salt on my monitor didn't make the terrible shock I got while trying to ingest this any better. Did I do something wrong?

Ya have to duct tape the mouse buttons together...

..please never, ever use Dvorak and Prophecy in the same phrase again.

Take as long as you want with them.
YOU DID WHAT?!?!?!
"It's the height of ridiculousness to say for those 9 lines you get hundreds of millions."
Where can one grab the Mac OSX torrents? I need to try this out.
I think their website is running on OS X on VMWare.
Oh boy. You should try it the other way. You'd be hairless by 30.
Apple machines are so quiet because of his own personal hatred of ambient noise
funny - I thought it was the liquid cooling that did the trick.
So relax.
Disclaimer: I just switched to Windows at home. It's the bomb.
There are no trails. There are no trees out here.
Just to be politically incorrect for a moment....

Would it benefit Ferrari in the long run to have every ghetto curb filled with Ferrari's?
It seems to be working for BMW and Mercedes

I totally agree. Fake wood inlays on the dashboard are critical to the overall functioning of the vehicle.
I thought MAcs used standard AGP slots? SO ok they still need mac drivers (will linux ones work on OSX? dunno - just askin the Q)
;)
Dude, you need to ask for a new keyboard for your next birthday -- your shift key keeps sticking on and off, and sometimes the whole thing just stops recognizing keypresses.
Either that or your "linux ones" are a little screwy.
Damn it, I never have mod points when I need them.
You know, you're allowed to swear on slashdot. Here, watch: fuck, shit. See? The worst you might experience is a down-modding. It's not so bad.
Nope, it's a little known fact, but in addition to the Reality Distortion Field, Jobs also emits particles of pure hate, materialized into existence by his loathing of ambient noise and ginormous ego. These particles, called "hatrons", produce a sort of white noise effect when interacting with Apple-brand computers and make them run quite silently.
" IE supports everything."
I cannot believe that I am seeing these letters strung together into these words, thus formlating this sentence.
I hereby discredid any utterance that you manage to put forth!
Shame on you!
The word "prohecy" really bugs me, too.
You're new here, aren't you?
You lost me at "the stability of XP."
They make sure to whip their slave laborers a bit harder than those of the competing factories. That's the Nike difference!
No, it's like omfg stfu already vs. omfg stfu right now.
I don't think I've *ever* gotten a blue screen.
Of course not: Go to Start/Control Panel/System/Advanced, click "Settings" under "Startup and Recovery", then under "System Failure" uncheck "Automatically restart". Voila, you'll have blue screens again ;)
