My new Hackintosh with bag and iPhone

My new Hackintosh with bag and iPhone

As I mentioned in my last post, I recently got a Dell Mini9. I wasn’t really in the market for a new computer, but once i found out that it’s the only netbook (9″ screen, 2.2 lbs) that will flawlessly run OS X, for around $350, I was sold. The reality is that most of the time that i drag around my 5.5 lb, 15″ macbook pro, all i was using it for was email/web surfing. That’s exactly what netbooks are for!If you’re interested in getting one of these sweet macbook minis for yourself, check out dell.com for the machine and more importantly, www.mydellmini.com to learn how to make it a Hackintosh. The dell mini forum members are an invaluable source of talent and knowledge that have allowed many people to enjoy their own hacked mini9s. So far, things have been running very well. All the hardware works flawlessly, and the OS runs quite snappy. I also found an ebay seller, MoApples, that makes custom cut vinyl stickers so my white mini lid now has a silver Apple sticker on it. Needless to say, it draws a bit of mystique. I also got a custom made carrying case from another forum member, psyopper. That should arrive tomorrow, then my mini set up will be complete. I’ll post pictures once my case arrives so stay tuned.
