But my lack of sse 3 makes it so I can use rosetta


Also I don't have quartz acceleration because theres no drivers for my card .

Hmm
I think Apple has something up their sleeve...

Practically giving up their software rights to hackers? Bah, they're too smart for that.

Something will happen soon, I don't know what, but something will happen that'll fix all of this.

BTW: Any of you PC users who have this OSx86 software installed, remember that it is Illegal software. Please have the decency to keep your illegal doings to yourself, rather than telling everyone else how to break the law as well. :sigh:

once tiger for Intel comes out, why will it be illegal if you buy a legit copy to hack it to run on a PC.

Meh, apple will never stop people from cracking its software, just like every other software company in the world.....

As has been pointed out earlier in this thread, the net is full of millions of highly determined, highly skilled people who, sooner or later, will find a way around what ever protection apple can use on OS X.

Looks like Apple is already taking some legal action on this.
