Hackintosh Smackdown - Janit - 04-18-2009

Recommendations please!

Dell Mini 9
Works out of the box using a retail Leopard DVD.
That's it!

This thing requires no EFI screwing with, etc???

I am wondering is Apple going to boost DELL or are there not enuf Mini people to get to DELLS bottom line. Seems like DELL could somehow sell more units or would that make Bill made if DELL recognized the compatability?

Just a little, but it's easy to do & keeps getting easier.

Only one with greens all the way across is the Dell Mini 9.

The Dell site is really getting hammered.

How many RAM slots? How expensive is RAM?

Sounds like a good strategy would be to look for max RAM min drive and upgrade to good size Runcore...

One slot. I paid about $20 for a 2GB chip.
