OS X On the MSI Wind

Ruler of Planets writes "PlanetX64 has just published an article on loading OS X on an MSI Wind, effectively creating a machine that is smaller and lighter than a Macbook Air. The exercise was done solely for academic purposes and doing so voids all kinds of warranties, but hey, now you can slip a Mac into a lab coat pocket!"

    The mid 90s called. They have the answer to your question. But here's a reminder:

    • Other companies eat away at Apple's hardware sales and Apple heads towards bankruptcy
    • NeXT sells OpenStep for x86 computers. It's at least a decade ahead of everything else (except maybe BeOS). It's very expensive.

    The fact you don't remember/know those two pieces of history suggest it wasn't really a stunning success.
