theres no real point to osx x86 right now...that was like the alpha developers edition...its rare that everything in your pc will even function properly with osx x86...i tried osx on a venice 3200+...its a dual boot and u gotta spend hours tweaking to even get some functions working...
rule of thumb...if u want osx...buy a mac.

NE1 installed OS X on their Intel yet?
Using the :VMWare files for patched Mac OS X Tiger Intel" method? Was it successful, or have you done this with another way?
If you were successful, What hardware did you use?
I've read a few sites on this but wondered if any RFD'ers have gotten this done?_______________
What the H E double hockey sticks have I done now?

I've got a powerbook, and a 3200 Winchester.
I've got the developer's edition OSX, but obviously that won't install.
How did you get it to work?

I read it is much easier to do through VMWare, but natively is a whole other story. You need to support SSE2 at least, and SSE3 is preferred.

It is native (OSx 86 compiled programs, that is). I got it to install but removed it after fooling with it for 2 weeks.
Not all programs work (the Rosetta emulation layer is not perfect yet, but quite a lot of it do).
Getting it up and running took a few hours on my AMD64 3200+ on an Asus board. It's a fun OS and is very functional even with the Dev version, great for "kicking the tires."
Don't ask me how to get it to work. Best resource is 0sx86 wiki (google for it).
If you have an HD to spare, a supported videocard and an SSE3 CPU (sse2 works but not as nice), by all means it's a fun little project._______________
From a "Family" reviewer: "We Cheer teaches coordination, enticement to lust, women being used as sex objects, and team work."
From Worthy Playing: "We Cheer is, then, for all intents and purposes, the F-Zero GX of music games. It asks for so much, yet forgives so little. It is actually so casual that it's hardcore."
