@Russian Bias btw something that I noticed, Spanish is one of the most spoken language, so how does no one understand? and how can a language be pretty useless, please explain your shitty logic.
I know this is a joke, but I have to say this anyway - if you choose good hardware, not really true anymore (usually people with hackintosh experience from a couple of years ago say this, but nowadays it's actually quite stable).
I've never had a kernel panic on my Hackintosh - yet for a while my PC blue screened every time I woke it out of sleep on Windows 10 😂😂 I think it's fixed now tho
I remember when my goal in life was to build a Hackintosh, it took me weeks to get all the hardware together and a working install. Then I got bored and quit using it after about 2 weeks. hmm... fun experiment, tho!
That's cute but they define what they mean by Apple at the beginning of the contract. Or at least I assume they do since every contract written up now a days defines things like that.

Steve Jobs and Wozniak were hackers themselves, they would have loved this if they were younger but then started closing everything up once they were the person making the system.
It's mostly Jobs who pushed the philosophy of closing everything, Wozniak really was what we could call a "hacker" in his philosophy, he wanted Apple to be more open and honest regarding hardware and software.
I agree, but as someone who's often depicted as the visionary innovator Jobs wasn't the angel, he stole many ideas before trying to lock them under patents, I'm glad that Apple somehow failed to take the lead in computers, the internet today could've been very different, for example.
We can thank Apple for the internet as it exists today, mostly standards based. They pushed like hell to make the web an open standards based place. We can also thank them for rich media (specifically video) content on the web. MPEG4 is more or less just the .mov format wrapped in an open patent pool for anybody to licence. They were YEARS ahead of everyone else with their video playback formats and performance. QuickTime was so good that Microsoft copied lines of code from it to get smooth video playback on Windows back in the day (well, more accurately it was Intel who did it on Microsoft's behalf). Apple could have very easily used them into oblivion but chose to go with a patent cross licence agreement and for Microsoft to invest money into Apple publicly to show they were happy to play nicely with the competition (as some context, this was when Microsoft were bring dragged through the courts for anti-competitive behaviour. Apple had them by the balls and could have genuinely had them split into at least two separate companies with ease). This is where the $150million investment thing comes from, and their commitment to Office on the Mac. People wrongly assume that $150million saved Apple. It would have lasted a month if that, it was a drop in the bucket compared to their overheads at the time, it was simply a "we think Apple are worth investing in" move by Microsoft and nothing else.
I have an old Mac Pro 1,1 (2006 sucker). It's limited to SATA 2 and no M.2 through PCIe slot (unless it runs SATA or something). I literally had to Hackintosh my genuine Mac Pro to run El Capitan, because it isn't "officially supported". Hilarious.
El Cap and newer use bits of the hardware of unsupported Macs simply lack. So while you have it working, it's a crippled system in some ways. 64bit was a bit cut off point for a lot of older system. For some reason the first few generations of Intel Macs were 32bit EFI's rather than 64bit, which is hilarious because the entire stack was 64bit on the G5 platform. It kind of regressed in that regard until Intel came out with the Core 2 series and equivalent Xeon lines.
Old reply I know but just clarifying a couple points. The Mac Pro has ALWAYS been 64 bit compatible due to the use of Xeon processors from the very first generation, so that is not the limiting factor that it doesn't run El Capitan or newer Mac OS. Also, the "first few generations of Intel Macs" that were 32bit was literally only the first generation. Starting with the first refresh later in 2006, all Macs had Core 2 duo or better processors, which are 64 bit compatible.
This has definitely changed a lot with the introduction of Opencore, it has simply made it so easy to make a super stable Hackintosh, I indeed use one, and trust, it just took about 2 hours, and I already had a more stable system that even what windows can offer, bye bye BSOD and Bloatware! And updating literally is as easy as clicking "update"
For a while now, I was thinking about running MacOS in VirtualBox just so I could study the binary, and then compiling a free-software equivalent of it (much like how some people came together and studied Android's OS and created Replicant). While it would be challenging to do so, its not impossible, and Apple can do very little to intervene, considering studying the binary is completely different than breaking into their servers and stealing their source code, and a free-software equivalent would be different enough to where it wouldn't be considered a knock-off.

I'm wondering how much of it is genuine ignorance and how much is wilful to play up to his obviously mostly Mac hating audience.
12 years? Are you sure? I am pretty sure Apple ][ compatible hardware was sold since the success of the Apple ][. Technically that is not a "Hackint0sh" since the term could only be introduced since there was actually the Macintosh on the market.
And that is why judges have technical advisors to tell them exactly what's going on. When companies get sued for security breaches and have to prove they 'had adequate security' that's what happens. So you'd be screwed! :P
Just installed hackintosh, it's great, good hardware, windows install for gaming and all the polish the OS brings! Sucks for dual monitor support though
Spade Kent oh yeah it runs great, it's just a lot of stuff that stands out like not being able to open mission control on just one monitor, its not a deal breaker by any means its just aggravating when the rest of the OS is so well polished
Dude, I thought it wouldn't work either, but all I had to do was install NvidiaGraphicsFixup (or IntelGraphicsFixup) and it worked flawlessly! Once I did that, I could even set my system definition as iMac17,1 or MacPro6,1! They would just give me a black screen before. Ask me if you have any questions. I'm pro at this. ;) To clarify, Nvidia and IntelGraphicsFixup are kexts that need to be injected or installed, and can be found here: sourceforge.net/u/lvs1974/profile/
ive put one of the iphone-apple-stickers on a thermaltake tower housing a hackintosh; is it apple-branded? i think so :D - at least it will easily run away from current mac"pro"s ;'D
In Poland, installing/using/selling hackintosh is completly legal. "You downloaded Mac OS for free. Now you are "owner" of this copy so you can do whatever you want with that."
I'm pretty sure the End user license agreement is only about support and guarantee of functionality here in america. Basically, you can do whatever, but if you use it in a way Apple didn't tell you, you can't go suing them for making a faulty product, and refusing to refund, or fix it.
Turbulencje well yes you can swap the parts of the 2005 Mac pro if it is the one that I think you are talking about because it is a tower and it can be completely dissassembled as far as I remember.
Francis Srečko Fabian afaik is there no 2005 Mac Pro. There is the 2006 Mac Pro - with a Intel Woodcrest processor. In this case it may be possible due to the fact that this is no longer a PowerPC platform. Unfortunately, if it is a Power Mac G5 from 2005, the chances are small that you can run it easily. This model was using PowerPC architecture rather than an Intel architecture. If it works it works by some third party port, but I really can't imagine that anyone one would take this work load just to run an modern software on quite old hardware. Furthermore I don't know if it is even possible because MacOS is closed-source.
tbh it sucks because my wifi doesn't have a kext available, and i'm not hackintosh nerdy enough to be able to make one myself... but it's fine on my desktop, i just rather not use it on my desktop since that's what i use for developing so i rather use linux or windows on dualboot :P i really hope the mac os itself is going to support more stuff so that people don't have to compile drivers themselfs
One of the largest parts of the hackintosh community is pro audio people. Just as gaming is better on Windows because of all the history behind gaming on Windows, pro audio is that much better in OS X because the very first ProTools rigs were on Mac and that's where the pro audio community has been since then.
i'm a happy customac user, running both osx and win10 with a 1050ti in a complete silent build (no fans, no hdd). so i can enjoy working on my mac and playing in 4k with the same machine, and in silence! no brand sells a machine as awesome as mine, so i had to do it myself!
The closest thing to a high end Hackintosh these days that isn't a "*Hack*intosh" is getting an old Mac Pro from 2010, installing an X5680 on it, a fast SSD, and a GTX 1080 Ti since Nvidia has official drivers for it for the macOS.
I've been running Hackintosh systems for nearly 10 years. I've had amazing results. I've even bought several Macs and other Apple accessories because of such a great interconnected ecosystem experience. In fact, my last project (about 3 years ago) is a NAS hackintosh. Although it's specs are meh, it churns through any kind of processing I throw at it. 3.5Ghz quad core Intel i5, 32GB 2133Mz RAM, 250GB SSD boot drive, Gigabyte mini motherboard. Everything works out of the box. For data protection, I have SnapRaid set up with (8) 3TB hard drives, and (2) 3TB parity drives. For remote backup, I use Crashplan. I use Resilio Sync for something like an unlimited Dropbox. All my devices are backed up to it using TimeMachine and their counterparts.
Had mine running for over 4 years now. It wasn’t exactly flawless at first, but once you sus out all the idiosyncrasies, it truly because a real Mac experience. I suggest making a hybrid machine with windows also installed, but on a separate drive. Best of both worlds in one machine. As for transferring files between both OS, use a local NAS.
But you can dual boot without problems ? I`m about to get an Alienware 15r3 and read that is good for Hackintosh but I want to be able to boot to Windows and play games in it.
Gregory Solarte no problems at all if you keep windows on a hard drive and osx on another, partitioning is possible but keeping them on separate hard drives makes it bulletproof
imessage facetime icloud all run great on my hackintosh just gotta tweak a few things and call apple to activate your "mac's" serial to enable imessage
I built my first hackintosh when I was 15 years old and it worked very well on a Celeron processor. It was OS X Leopard with two displays + original apple USB mouse and aluminum keyboard. So I had the full experience ;) I used it for 3 years before buying my first MacBook and it was much more stable than Windows. Windows 7 could give me a BSOD at any given time on that PC, while Mac OS kernel panics only happened if I did something wrong during the installation. If done properly you can get a very good, stable machine. If not, you will have a bad time, but any operating system can give you head aches, even with drivers from official sources and etc. if you don’t do it right. I just do not recommend it for average users, you need to have a certain level of knowledge so you’ll be able to understand problems when they happen and how to fix them.
I have a perfect running copy of Mojave running on an HP Elitebook. iMessage and FaceTime both work as well as power management, sleep and full graphics acceleration. It was something I worked on just to see if I could. Now it sits on a shelf waiting to be a different project.
I've only gone through one BSOD, after that my lappie never showed a BSOD again ( most likely the error was sorted out), anyway it's interesting to hear about Hackintosh again. #IamStickingWithWindows10 #Period.
I first dabbled with Hackintosh back when Snow Leopard was the main OSX, I installed it onto a Lenovo laptop I had laying around and it worked flawlessly, Now, I ditched Windows pc for a iMac however, This iMac has been extensively upgraded with a modified Nvidia series gpu that supports EFI and a hell of a lot more ram, I bootcamped windows too for gaming and have the best of both worlds, essentially the reverse of a hackintosh :)
apart from rehabman it sucks... i mean why would you use their tools anyways and their support is a shame... insanelymac.com and hackintosh-forum.de are the best choice
their tools use open source tools from the community without permission. also its mostly outdated. if you are a paying customer you can count on their support. oh wait - no, even then only according to their hardware listings
They should honestly be happy people are building Hackintoshes, as people are drafting towards MacOs. They're like "YAY MONEY. Money talks. MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY dollar dollar, dollar dollar
Haven't done a hackintosh yet. I always assumed people were using some pirated and hacked version of OS X, but they were actually downloading it straight from Apple. Very informative video.
Énio Fernandes I had a Laptop with W10, in like half my games it had a bluescreen after 2-3 Mins. Since I bought my desktop with W7 (around half a year ago) I never have erver had a bluescreen with the latest drivers well to be honest I had one Bluescreen with my system but that was when I missed to install GPU drivers and played games ._.
I have a custom built rig with a 2500k, 8gb DDR3 RAM, and a GTX 1060. I've never gotten a bluescreen on Windows 10, and I've had it since launch. We often like to blame operating systems for shit, but hardware manufacturers sometimes don't update their drivers properly.

I like that you didn't actually give Tmac credit but pointed out his apps that would help your majority of your viewers get going. but you did mention OSx86 which is awesome. but great video. im using a hackintosh on a 2009 dell435mt runing high Sierra, and iMessage was easy AF to get enabled
I ran a successful hackingtosh for 2 years. It's a pain to figure out the right settings and shit you need for your system, because it's different for every system. But after that it's pretty cool.
After watching this video, I thought about turning my old as Moses bedroom computer into a Hackintosh. I found that a few people had done it with that specific computer, but it wasn't easy in any way. Think I'll take a hard pass and stick with the penguin.
@@NidraxGaming It also doesn't requre jumping through hoops to get into working. To get MacOS working out-of-the-box you have to buy Apple's overpriced and sometimes badly made hardware.
@@frataltay4543 well, it's not like you are legally allowed to run macOS on anything other than Apple's products nor the OS is designed to work on hardware that is not sold by Apple. But in the end, the OS itself is (as far as I know) pretty well designed, nice and consistent looking, as Apple just has whole departments to work on the UI, and far more user-friendly than any Linux can ever be. But the point is… Elementary is not even design to look like macOS. You can do a far better job yourself with proper Cinnamon and GTK+ themes plus Docky. It's just… there will always be some shortcomings here and there and it wil fall apart anyway once you run any KDE application.
where can you get an apple computer for only $1800. ha-ha. At my huge computer store i walk through the isles i see 1 to 2 of them for apple. I walk through the rest of the store and see the other 95 % windows and windows programs. The difference is Microsoft pcs about $500 for a good one. and about $3000. for an apple! thoughs are about the only differences.
This guy's voice and his mannerisms; it's like listening to a cat being strangled, whilst you're watching it slide down a chalkboard, and its throwing up. A truly horrific milieu.
iMessage, iFace, iCloud... All working in my Hackintosh. And I'm also using Apple's hardware on my PC, lol. An AirPort card took from an old iMac (installed with an PCI-e 2x adapter I bought in AliExpress) and an Apple Super Drive I took from a defunct Macbook. The Machine is a Dell XPS 8700, but in a Silverstone STT03 case.
Maybe this is what the iMac "Pro" will be using? It would make sense lol. AMD looks to have given Intel the much needed kick in the ass to get itself in gear and start improving things again. Competition is good!
He didn't even research about it, there's a lot of information left behind and some if inaccurate. DSDT, vanilla install, Clover, Wi-Fi cards, Uefi install. Having said that, the most important thing is to find a processor - video card combination, the rest is easy.
Hey, Linus, you should check out the Legal Ramifications of using code protected by the GNU. After that, go ahead, boot anything using OSX, launch the terminal utility and start sifting through the system files. Know what you'll find? Illegally copy/pasted code protected by the GNU. In fact, on the average, only 3 system services are actually 'Apple' owned IP, all of the rest are literally copy/pasted GNU protected code from vanilla Linux and FreeBSD. Which means, in the simplest terms, OSX (MacOS) is in open violation of the GNU and always has been. They can't come after users, companies or anyone else... provided you disable/remove the 3 protected Apple system services - one of which is Apple's package manager - and install their open source counterparts. Homebrew being the most popular. Why hasn't Apple been prosecuted for this? Why have they gotten away with going after 'hackintosh' companies? That probably has something to do with: 1) Apple's army of lawyers; 2) The general public's complete and utter lack of knowledge in this area, which allows Apple Inc. to throw as much shade as they like, since no one knows better and last, but certainly not least 3) Apple's $30+ Billion in liquid assets that has been and can be again used to grease the right palms in the right places. Familiarize yourself with FreeBSD and Linux. Go try it yourself and learn what the rest of the open source community has known for years.
Goober and Buddy I have a Mac for one reason and one reason only: It is my school distributed computer. As much as I dislike the Mac lineup because they are overpriced for the performance and features you are getting, my school MacBook Air 2015 is the hardest working machine in my whole house. With the school year wrapping up, it has been working harder than ever, and just tonight, I had it running 3 word documents, at least 10 tabs on Chrome, it was running hot and it's RAM was being absolutely maxed out... but after hours of hard work it got the job done. Though I personally prefer my Dell gaming laptop running Windows 10, I can't help but say that my Mac, at the end of the day, is a good computer, and I'm going to miss it when I have to hand it in at the end of the schoolyear. I'll get it back in September though, and in that time, I still have my trust Dell.
Lol I installed it twice without checking for compatibility before on my pc, once for Maverick and once for Yosemite and worked super fine XD lucky I guess
There is a video of the NY guy here about using Mac OS on Mac hardware and Windows on Wintel hardware. He maintains Windows works best with the eraser-head, while touchpad users can find not better than on a Mac hardware, for that smooth driving experience.
honestly, I think steve jobs would be happy to see you download a hackintosh, since its rebelling against the new apple which is literally the polar opposite of what it was when he was the co-founder.
Just theme linux with a noobslab macOS theme. You’ll have full compatibility, and a mac interface which i am using on my linux laptop. Hackintosh is unnecessary. And if you need an app to work, keep windows, but dual boot linux.
(I know this doesn't work but) That is a terrible solution. Again, if all you are using is the Adobe CC suite and you just miss Mac Os, that's fine. But, if you use MAC exclusive apps like Logic or Scriviner, then that won't work at all in the long run.
@@kirinplays3822 I really hope that happens since most of the art apps I use work on Mac os anyways and while Windows-Linux usually has bad performance, I can see Mac to Linux being better since they're both based on Unix. That could also help me convert my laptop to Linux since Scriviner, IMovie and Logic are all I use it for.
Well since they already put in the effort to make a Hackintosh video they might as well do an update to the Hackintosh vs. Mac Pro video from a few years back.
What about using a minimal headless (or multi GPU) Linux setup to virtualize macos and all the Mac hardware you need to make a hackintosh? Then you can use any hardware that supports vms to make a hackintosh.
Don Omar that’s been possible since 2006. Make a bootable windows usb, hold down the option key when you turn on the Mac, pick the install usb and install Mac OS. If you want both oses side by side, in Mac OS open applications>utilities>boot camp utility and let it partition it for windows then do the install
@@eaymonddull I don't he asked you for a tutorial my dude nor if it was possible way back, he simply said that he has windows installed onto a macintosh
Its funny because normally when I think of a "hackintosh," I normally think of a Mac computer that someone has decided to dualboot windows on. I do not think of a "PC" that someone has decided to try and put Mac OS on... but that's just me...
One of the things that should have been mentioned briefly is that Apple themselves have an open source OS, because their OS is based off of Linux and part of the agreement that they made to sell it was that they also provide a free, open source version so that people can have it for free, like a standard Linux distribution. So, using it for profit does break the EULA, but their open source version is free, and up to date.so even if you don't have the money to spend on a certified copy of the current OS, you can still have it for free.
Actually the UNIX system used for the kernel engine is BSD UNIX (Berkeley Standard Distribution) which is why Mac are very secure machines. However, like any UNIX/LINUX system once permissions are given at the root level, then real damage can be done. Look at the Darwin Project for more understanding on how the OS is put together.

12 years? Are you sure? I am pretty sure Apple ][ compatible hardware was sold since the success of the Apple ][. Technically that is not a "Hackint0sh" since the term could only be introduced since there was actually the Macintosh on the market.
Arne Döring Hackint0sh or OSx86 came to exist after the introduction of Intel Macs or Mactels as we called it then.
I'm on a Hackintosh. Why am I watching this? lol
Why not?

"Apple-branded", so just slap an Apple sticker on it 🍎👍
Anthony Vanover Even better, get a hot poker with Apple's logo and press it to your computer! (Please note I am not responsible for your computer) :)

And that is why judges have technical advisors to tell them exactly what's going on. When companies get sued for security breaches and have to prove they 'had adequate security' that's what happens. So you'd be screwed! :P

Just installed hackintosh, it's great, good hardware, windows install for gaming and all the polish the OS brings! Sucks for dual monitor support though
Spade Kent oh yeah it runs great, it's just a lot of stuff that stands out like not being able to open mission control on just one monitor, its not a deal breaker by any means its just aggravating when the rest of the OS is so well polished
Dude, I thought it wouldn't work either, but all I had to do was install NvidiaGraphicsFixup (or IntelGraphicsFixup) and it worked flawlessly! Once I did that, I could even set my system definition as iMac17,1 or MacPro6,1! They would just give me a black screen before. Ask me if you have any questions. I'm pro at this. ;)
To clarify, Nvidia and IntelGraphicsFixup are kexts that need to be injected or installed, and can be found here: sourceforge.net/u/lvs1974/profile/

In Poland, installing/using/selling hackintosh is completly legal.

no to kurwa!!!

I confirm. Proud polish hackintosh user since 2015.
I'm pretty sure the End user license agreement is only about support and guarantee of functionality here in america.
Basically, you can do whatever, but if you use it in a way Apple didn't tell you, you can't go suing them for making a faulty product, and refusing to refund, or fix it.
yeah like stealing my bike morons
The fine print "On a single Apple branded computer." 4:05
So just put a Apple sticker on your pc case or laptop then it's legal. :)
I don't think that would quite work, personally. :)
I wonder if this can be done with a 2005 Mac Pro? It's just sitting there. It's only function is grating cheese.
what do you mean by done? If you mean to use that Mac as MacOS donor, then yes xD
Yep, Turbulencje. That's what I meant. To turn and 2005 Mac pro into a "Hackintosh/modernish" Mac.
Mind blown, can you even swap parts in it? Wouldnt it be cheaper to just build a new pc xd
Turbulencje well yes you can swap the parts of the 2005 Mac pro if it is the one that I think you are talking about because it is a tower and it can be completely dissassembled as far as I remember.
Francis Srečko Fabian afaik is there no 2005 Mac Pro. There is the 2006 Mac Pro - with a Intel Woodcrest processor. In this case it may be possible due to the fact that this is no longer a PowerPC platform. Unfortunately, if it is a Power Mac G5 from 2005, the chances are small that you can run it easily. This model was using PowerPC architecture rather than an Intel architecture. If it works it works by some third party port, but I really can't imagine that anyone one would take this work load just to run an modern software on quite old hardware. Furthermore I don't know if it is even possible because MacOS is closed-source.
:O that Sabertooth X58
I didn't know I needed to put that into a used parts build until now
Gorgeous, and perfect for a military theme build
that's such a coincidence! i literally build my first hackintosh yesterday! and now you make a vid about it lol

tbh it sucks because my wifi doesn't have a kext available, and i'm not hackintosh nerdy enough to be able to make one myself... but it's fine on my desktop, i just rather not use it on my desktop since that's what i use for developing so i rather use linux or windows on dualboot :P i really hope the mac os itself is going to support more stuff so that people don't have to compile drivers themselfs
don't forget to stick am Apple brand/logo/sticker on it to become legal.

One of the largest parts of the hackintosh community is pro audio people. Just as gaming is better on Windows because of all the history behind gaming on Windows, pro audio is that much better in OS X because the very first ProTools rigs were on Mac and that's where the pro audio community has been since then.

The closest thing to a high end Hackintosh these days that isn't a "*Hack*intosh" is getting an old Mac Pro from 2010, installing an X5680 on it, a fast SSD, and a GTX 1080 Ti since Nvidia has official drivers for it for the macOS.
good idea.
5:32 If Steve Jobs was still alive, he would have kept the prices for Macs as low as possible, so it wouldn't be necessary to build a Hackintosh
I've been running Hackintosh systems for nearly 10 years. I've had amazing results. I've even bought several Macs and other Apple accessories because of such a great interconnected ecosystem experience.
In fact, my last project (about 3 years ago) is a NAS hackintosh. Although it's specs are meh, it churns through any kind of processing I throw at it. 3.5Ghz quad core Intel i5, 32GB 2133Mz RAM, 250GB SSD boot drive, Gigabyte mini motherboard. Everything works out of the box.
For data protection, I have SnapRaid set up with (8) 3TB hard drives, and (2) 3TB parity drives. For remote backup, I use Crashplan. I use Resilio Sync for something like an unlimited Dropbox. All my devices are backed up to it using TimeMachine and their counterparts.
Had mine running for over 4 years now.
It wasn’t exactly flawless at first, but once you sus out all the idiosyncrasies, it truly because a real Mac experience. I suggest making a hybrid machine with windows also installed, but on a separate drive. Best of both worlds in one machine. As for transferring files between both OS, use a local NAS.

Building hackintosh's ever since Apple made the move to Intel cpu's, never went back to windows personally.
Is it stable?
It is a fairly new concept to me.
Bert Goens extremely stable once you get it working on your system, just be cautious of osx updates
But you can dual boot without problems ? I`m about to get an Alienware 15r3 and read that is good for Hackintosh but I want to be able to boot to Windows and play games in it.
Gregory Solarte no problems at all if you keep windows on a hard drive and osx on another, partitioning is possible but keeping them on separate hard drives makes it bulletproof
I am currently running 10.13.1, no DSDTs, no problems at all, triple-boot with Ubuntu and Windows.
imessage facetime icloud all run great on my hackintosh just gotta tweak a few things and call apple to activate your "mac's" serial to enable imessage
I built my first hackintosh when I was 15 years old and it worked very well on a Celeron processor. It was OS X Leopard with two displays + original apple USB mouse and aluminum keyboard. So I had the full experience ;) I used it for 3 years before buying my first MacBook and it was much more stable than Windows. Windows 7 could give me a BSOD at any given time on that PC, while Mac OS kernel panics only happened if I did something wrong during the installation. If done properly you can get a very good, stable machine. If not, you will have a bad time, but any operating system can give you head aches, even with drivers from official sources and etc. if you don’t do it right. I just do not recommend it for average users, you need to have a certain level of knowledge so you’ll be able to understand problems when they happen and how to fix them.
I have a perfect running copy of Mojave running on an HP Elitebook. iMessage and FaceTime both work as well as power management, sleep and full graphics acceleration. It was something I worked on just to see if I could. Now it sits on a shelf waiting to be a different project.
I've only gone through one BSOD, after that my lappie never showed a BSOD again ( most likely the error was sorted out), anyway it's interesting to hear about Hackintosh again. #IamStickingWithWindows10 #Period.
Worst thing about a hackintosh, all the port options!

I first dabbled with Hackintosh back when Snow Leopard was the main OSX, I installed it onto a Lenovo laptop I had laying around and it worked flawlessly, Now, I ditched Windows pc for a iMac however, This iMac has been extensively upgraded with a modified Nvidia series gpu that supports EFI and a hell of a lot more ram, I bootcamped windows too for gaming and have the best of both worlds, essentially the reverse of a hackintosh :)

@@NidraxGaming It also doesn't requre jumping through hoops to get into working. To get MacOS working out-of-the-box you have to buy Apple's overpriced and sometimes badly made hardware.
@@frataltay4543 well, it's not like you are legally allowed to run macOS on anything other than Apple's products nor the OS is designed to work on hardware that is not sold by Apple. But in the end, the OS itself is (as far as I know) pretty well designed, nice and consistent looking, as Apple just has whole departments to work on the UI, and far more user-friendly than any Linux can ever be. But the point is… Elementary is not even design to look like macOS. You can do a far better job yourself with proper Cinnamon and GTK+ themes plus Docky. It's just… there will always be some shortcomings here and there and it wil fall apart anyway once you run any KDE application.
Apple: $500 - $1,800
Hackintosh: $90- 300
where can you get an apple computer for only $1800. ha-ha. At my huge computer store i walk through the isles i see 1 to 2 of them for apple. I walk through the rest of the store and see the other 95 % windows and windows programs. The difference is Microsoft pcs about $500 for a good one. and about $3000. for an apple! thoughs are about the only differences.

Lorenz Schmid No they'll use a CPU from 10 years ago
Apple is always using hardware that is at least a couple generations old. Keeps the profit up.
He didn't even research about it, there's a lot of information left behind and some if inaccurate. DSDT, vanilla install, Clover, Wi-Fi cards, Uefi install.
Having said that, the most important thing is to find a processor - video card combination, the rest is easy.
Hey, Linus, you should check out the Legal Ramifications of using code protected by the GNU. After that, go ahead, boot anything using OSX, launch the terminal utility and start sifting through the system files. Know what you'll find? Illegally copy/pasted code protected by the GNU. In fact, on the average, only 3 system services are actually 'Apple' owned IP, all of the rest are literally copy/pasted GNU protected code from vanilla Linux and FreeBSD. Which means, in the simplest terms, OSX (MacOS) is in open violation of the GNU and always has been. They can't come after users, companies or anyone else... provided you disable/remove the 3 protected Apple system services - one of which is Apple's package manager - and install their open source counterparts. Homebrew being the most popular. Why hasn't Apple been prosecuted for this? Why have they gotten away with going after 'hackintosh' companies? That probably has something to do with: 1) Apple's army of lawyers; 2) The general public's complete and utter lack of knowledge in this area, which allows Apple Inc. to throw as much shade as they like, since no one knows better and last, but certainly not least 3) Apple's $30+ Billion in liquid assets that has been and can be again used to grease the right palms in the right places. Familiarize yourself with FreeBSD and Linux. Go try it yourself and learn what the rest of the open source community has known for years.
But who would Apple's software and hardware? How would people know you have Mac OS then?
That shouldn't matter if you're using macOS for any reason other than status. And if you're buying it for status only, you're wasting your money.
Goober and Buddy I have a Mac for one reason and one reason only: It is my school distributed computer. As much as I dislike the Mac lineup because they are overpriced for the performance and features you are getting, my school MacBook Air 2015 is the hardest working machine in my whole house. With the school year wrapping up, it has been working harder than ever, and just tonight, I had it running 3 word documents, at least 10 tabs on Chrome, it was running hot and it's RAM was being absolutely maxed out... but after hours of hard work it got the job done. Though I personally prefer my Dell gaming laptop running Windows 10, I can't help but say that my Mac, at the end of the day, is a good computer, and I'm going to miss it when I have to hand it in at the end of the schoolyear. I'll get it back in September though, and in that time, I still have my trust Dell.

(I know this doesn't work but) That is a terrible solution. Again, if all you are using is the Adobe CC suite and you just miss Mac Os, that's fine. But, if you use MAC exclusive apps like Logic or Scriviner, then that won't work at all in the long run.

Windows dualboot is a FEATURE of OS X
Jay Star boot camp lets just about any mac run Windows . Boot camp is free with all versions of OSX Intel versions.

The Venn diagram for tech-savvy people and Apple eaters is just two separate circles.
One of the things that should have been mentioned briefly is that Apple themselves have an open source OS, because their OS is based off of Linux and part of the agreement that they made to sell it was that they also provide a free, open source version so that people can have it for free, like a standard Linux distribution. So, using it for profit does break the EULA, but their open source version is free, and up to date.so even if you don't have the money to spend on a certified copy of the current OS, you can still have it for free.
Actually the UNIX system used for the kernel engine is BSD UNIX (Berkeley Standard Distribution) which is why Mac are very secure machines. However, like any UNIX/LINUX system once permissions are given at the root level, then real damage can be done. Look at the Darwin Project for more understanding on how the OS is put together.
