Hi,

Does anyone know of any cases that look very similar to the apple G5's? I want to do a small project of building a PC and get OSX running on it, so a case that looks like the aluminium G5 case would be great. Any ideas please??

Cheers
 
The word on the net is that Apple are going to intel hardware and the software developers have been given the intel hardware and OSx86 as they call it to develop software and do some debugging. So it looks like OSX on a PC is a real possibility. Should be a good laugh to try though!
 
Ah so its not OSX for mac really its developed for intel so almost a pc anyway :)

Kind of, it is still Mac OSX, but as I said, all macs are going to go to intel hardware, which I suppose does mean that they are essentially PCs running a form of Linux/unix really.
 
Tbh, if your going to all the hassle to make a G5 clone, why not just get a MacMini instead? Be a dams site easier and cheaper.

Because that wouldn't be a challenge would it. Like most people in here, in forums anywhere, they are constantly trying to go one step further than they have done in the past.
 
hmmmmm.......

Good point I guess so, but its all No swearing! and giggles at the end of the day. Really there isnt much point in doing aside the fact to prove that it can be done on hardware that it probably wasnt intended for. Oh and for personal satisfaction of getting it to work.
