Question Asked: Can I Run Mac OS X On a PC?
|
Sep 21st, 2009 |
You can, but not very easily. Running Windows on a Mac is relatively easy compared to the other way around, using Bootcamp, Parallels, or VMVare.
However, running OS X on a PC, you’d need to built what’s referred to as a “hackintosh”. A machine specifically built for the purpose of running OS X.
PCs and OS X have different standards as to what will make them “work” for the machine itself. The majority of standard PCs aren’t capable of running OS X, so you need something custom.
Lifehacker has a great walk through to build one of these “hackintosh” computers for less than $800. Check out their tutorial here.
