  • Today we compare 4 different Dell Latitude business laptops from the high end 74xx line. We will go over the features and how much you can expect to spend on one on the second hand market. Are any of these worthy of being used over a real Mac? You can find guides for all of these over at osxlatitude.com/

      @Yusuf Clyde no one cares. ure probably a bot anyways, but in case youre not, nobody likes people who spy on their significant others. thats just pathetic. get a spine and talk to people instead of trying to get likes on youtube comments.

    hey again,
    so i ordered a used 7470 and it should arrive winthin the next 2 days. this will be my first hackintosh. i'm currently researching, but the vocabulary is very confusing and i'm having trouble finding out where to get started... a walkthrough on that model would be really REALLY awesome. or just a general overview of the procedure.
    cheers!

      I will look into making a tutorial video this weekend possibly, working on another video at the moment. In the mean time you should sort out how you will do Wifi, either order a USB Wifi adapter (easiest), or buy a wifi card that works with MacOS

      i haven't done any timed battery tests, but in normal use it seems to last just as long as in Windows. As for Airdrop and all of that, I can't personally test it as I don't use an Iphone, but people report it as working as long as you have the correct wifi/bluetooth card.

    I have a Alldocube Kbook Laptop, core m3 y-630 core duo 1,51Ghz, 8GB RAM, 512 SSD single drive, intel hd 515 128MB, 13'5 screen in 3:2 display.
    Last month I tried to install Hackintosh, it was my first time. The first part was successful, my machine was fast and the graphic stunning, because of my 3000×2000 display. So the mac OS recognized all my hardware part, RAM, drive, GPU and processour, but keyboard, trackpad and Wifi were not functionning.
    So I want to make sure that my computer is compatible to Hackintosh right ? It may be a problem with kexts since it was my very first Hackintosh ever.
    Please van you help me ?

      Yes, you will need a different card as most of these will come with an Intel based card that is not compatible. This list should help you out, your best bet is Ebay, but I have seen some on Amazon as well. osxlatitude.com/forums/topic/11138-inventory-of-supportedunsupported-wireless-cards-2-sierra-catalina/

      @@JTechWorkshop Thanks for the reply. I was able to get this card to work on an E7470 with the BCM94360CD adapter. It also works on an E7440 but the adpater/card combo is too long to put the lid back on. It won't work on the WWAN port. I was wondering if there's a way to get the WWAN port to behave as the WLAN port.

    Thank you for this video.
    I can't help but point out for further clarification something you mentioned about the 7470. You did state that the RAM maxes out at 32GB which conflicts with the information I had prior to placing an order for one, which is that the maximum RAM is 16GB. Of course, I was disappointed at that info because I was hoping it would be more. Plus, noone volunteered more info on that. So much for community support.
    Therefore, I'm asking here again, please. What is the maximum RAM that a Dell Latitude E7470 can take? Is it 8, 16 or 32 please?

    • @PhillipLemmon
      @PhillipLemmon 2 года назад +1

      To be honest, you really do t need anymore than 16 gigs.
      32 (in my opinion of course) is basically reserved for a laptop that has a gpu.

    • @JTechWorkshop
      @JTechWorkshop  2 года назад +1

      Multiple people in this thread confirming they put 32gb, it could be dependent on what CPU you have, but I would think any i7 would be supported.

      I guess the main limitation is cash. Over here, once one purchases an accessory it can almost NEVER be returned no matter what. Otherwise, I would simply try and if it doesn't work, return it. I'm not into any intensive graphics thing just learning frontend development and data analysis for now.
      By the way, my cpu is i5 6300U (skylake, I think).
