Build your own OS X machine |

Thursday, 21 February 2008 |
We all love modding out Macs, but we can't always go out and buy or find a Mac that fits the dimmensions we need. Imagine if you could build a computer and and just buy the OS from Apple. Wouldn't that make some of the mods so much easier? Well, reality has come true. While we do not know the exact legal standings of this, you can build your own computer and put Leopard on it, the process is dubbed "Hackintosh".
There is a really good detailed explination of the process posted on lifehacker by Adam Pash. It goes through the hardware and software aspects of creating your Hackintosh. The only question I have is, is the OS legally allowed to be put on non Apple Hardware? Can Apple send one of their famous C&D's to them?
Begun, this Clone Wars has.

PC's (Windows / Linux) often have the ability to mod their cases because they can design their own from scratch. Mac modders usually have to start off with a basic build from Apple. This has led to lots of documentation on the PC side as to how to trick out their cases. While out on the internet I happened across a great set of articles from AMD. They go through the basics of modding your case, including painting, cutting, lighting and cooling.
If you ever saw one the Mac Mod challenges and wanted to do your own, but don't know where to start, this is a page you need to read. Of course come back here and find out how we do it on the Mac side and get the insight of all the other Mac modders.

They want to change more than their desktop image, or the icons in their dock.
