Default Mac OS X on PC

Well, they deleted the code in OS X that prevents you from installing it on a PC. If you want to read up on it or find the link on how to install it I'm not going to post it here, but you could search for it on Google and are bound to find something.

Yeah, nothing stands in Apple's way now! Let the PC users of the world shed their faulty OS and join the mighty OS X!

Actually, plenty stands in Apple's way. Besides, Apple makes very little from the sale of Mac OS X. They bring in the money with hardware sales. How quickly people forget the Macintosh clones.

And before you waste your time with this, like Bond, do realize all Mac beta OS have a shut off date, where they will no longer work. They also are designed to run on only one single hardware configuration, and while people have gotten it to work decently with a very close setup, installing it on your PC is a gamble. It's also not optimized, and you can't just go online and find yourself a driver.

The retail Mac systems include a special identifying code embedded inside the processor, so don't expect to be able to do this with the retail OS. If you want a Mac, buy a Mac. Otherwise, stop bitching and finish your reinstall
