What’s a PC exactly? Whats a Mac exactly? What are the differences? And who is Linux? I explain it all, in simple easy words.

People arguing about Mac Vs PC Vs Linux have a lack of understanding. Here I put all the cards on the table in a fair, unbiased way. So you can quit your jibber jabber.

A fundamental problem with debating different computer systems on the internet is that almost everyone has a hard time defining what they are arguing for. Here are those definitions.

Update: This video is available in text form at This video is available in TEXT form at http://silenceisdefeat.com/~weblordpepe/macpclinux/macpclinux.html
This video is a human-friendly explanation of:
What the PC is
What a Mac is
WTF is Linux? Why it’s a different way of computing entirely.
Other types of computers
Free software
And a mention of Google Android

“OSX86 & KextHelper
Are Tools are programs needed for future kext install for Future drivers for your Audio,Voodoo Kernel, ETc,Etc,

i Recommend Installing
Chameleon Bootloader 2.0 r341
it lets select between operating Systems and Hard drives

Audio Works – via (Voodoo Kext)
Web Cam Works – With Installation

Pulled out the stock
Wireless Card
Named “Atheros” and Put In Place a
Dw1490 (any of these work Dw1490,Dw1390,Dw1395)
I Purchase Mine on Ebay (around $12-$35 buck)

Ethernet works – By loading the (AttansicL1ethernet.kext)

Mouse Lag has been worked out by Removing Atheros Kext Located in the Extensions Folder Inside the IO80211.Family.Kext….Search for it in your hard drive youll Find it. also once you remove it wont kernel Panic with the Voodoo Kernel…..thats is what my experience has been in the past.

The Failure of Mounting Dmg’s to your Desktop.
The Fix:
you need to Install
Seatbelt 10.5.6 to Correct the Problem.
“WHY YOU ASK”
THE VOODOO KERNEL VERSION HAS TO MATCH THE SEATBELT VERSION.

You need to Mos Def install Voodoo_Xnu_9.6.0.v1.1 as Final Kernel.

always after every Kext I Run Disk Utility to correct any issues with KERNEL conflicts.

MOST IMPORATANT DO NOT UPGRADE TO 10.5.7….NOT SAFE WILL KERNEL PANIC YOU …….I AM WORKING ON THIS …

The RatSim team managed to build a perfect PC configuration to run MacOS X Leopard. We are using Vanilla Kernel + EFI, so, software updates without a problem! Everything is working, from CPU to GPU, with minor patches applied (Built-in sound)

As for extras, we bought a cheap VIA firewire card, working perfectly with a DV camera (Canon ZR60) and Firewire Audio Interface attached (Presonus Inspire), also, we’re using a Edimax USB Wireless dongle (EW-7318USG), working perfectly with kismac (wardriving app)

The best thing is this machine was built for just 700 Brazilian Reais or US$ 400,00 (which could be much less expensive for people living in more developed countries without abusive taxes)

By the way, note that you’re not allowed to have Mac OS X installed on a PC, also, we’re MacManiacs since 1984 or so, and we condone piracy, especially piracy of awesome software from Apple, but what we do condone more is the abusive prices here in Brazil for Macs and the total disrespect from Apple towards Brazilian Market, for instance, we hate the fact that something that belongs to us, such as an iPhone, is totally locked up for mediocre business agreements. The same applies to Intel Macs in a less aggressive way, because, hey… Come on… It’s just a regular PC.

We really hope that Apple think different from now on, and release a SDK for the iPhone, as well opening MacOS X for the low and mid-end public. It’s sad to see that Apple –still– can’t see this huge market (software) towards this direction (everyone), and the advantage of an enourmous gap that Vista, unlike previous versions, left behind. Someone have to fill this gap, will it be Linux, Google? Or will we be Windows XP slaves forever?

Wake up Apple!!! Go Leopard!!!

Don’t get us wrong (A.K.A.; Don’t Flame Us!), it’s simply our opinion…

——————-UPDATE——————-
Due to frequent requests, here are the Specs of the critical components used in this specific configuration (we’ve actually did many more configs):

Motherboard – Gigabyte GA-945GCMX-S2
RAM – 2 x 1Gb Kingston ValueRam DDR2 667
Processor – Intel Core 2 Duo E4500
GPU – Geforce 7300GS – Point of View

Cool extras (all working): Via Firewire Card, Presonus Inspire Audio Interface, FastTrack USB, Canon ZR60 Camcorder and recently tested: Cheap chinese Midi to Usb cable, bought off ebay for 5 bucks, working like a charm)
——————————————–
For complete specs or advice on building your own Hackintosh, you can contact us at Rat.Sim.Br@gmail.com

Also, we’ll try to answer the emails the best we can, since we’re building hackintoshs for hobbyist purposes only, we pretty much don’t have time available to reply quickly.
