And for the general user, most of the time if something hangs on my mac, the rest of my system is fine. Gotten away with a crashed up far more times than on windows.



On linux "Ctrl+Alt+Backspace" fixes all. Is that counted as a reboot?
And most of the time if something hangs on windows, I can just end the process, and the rest of the OS is just fine. The only times i had to reboot because of an app crashing was in games, On my old GPU.

Well, I have an 8600. It does help. Windows hasnt crashed once since I got it.
Although I must admit, upgrading macs is so easy. Just buy a new computer.

LOL.

Macs = money i dont have.

Talking to my grandpa a month ago, talking about how he used to work for IBM a while back blah blah blah, and explained things like why macs are so overpriced.

Macontish designed the GUI, windows stole it, and in the end reserach and development cost a lot more money then microsoft stealing it.

Oh, Rus, i just got ubuntu

It was 2 months, and today i'm running what you call 'unstable' without a single crash, blue screen or death, or error. Except one, which was because it wouldn't connect to my 10 year old printer.

Have you tried a Hackintosh before? What hardware you running? Make sure you wear a hat to prevent you from pulling your hair ut. I tried getting it to work on my PC at home... No good. Spent hours and tried everything. Then I took it to work and tried it here on a laptop. With a bit of trial and eror I had it working.

Here is a good link: lifehacker.com/

But most of the help is gonna come from here: wiki.osx86project.org/ or here: forum.insanelymac.com/

Good luck.. you may well need it.. And for all people wanting to try this.... Please dont base this experience as a judgement of Mac. What you are doing wasnt meant to be done, so you WILL have problems and things wont run quite as they are meant to be... But for a lot of things it does actually run spot on!

Well, i've looked at the drivers that come with it, and they're fairly close to my system. Sound, video is the same. Mobo is similar.
I'll check out those links you gave me.
