Mac OS

I would back up your data and also I would do it on a machine that isn't critical to you. One that you wouldn't care if you had to format it 500 times next week from all the times you crashed it. Trust me, I have been there. You should have seen my first linux machines, nothing worked properly lol.
 
well intel based macs do not use a bios they use EFI, and once the PC world (vista does not support EFI) catches up I bet you may be able to buy a board that supports its natively. That is complete speculation at this point though. I never tried it really so I was unaware of the "cracked" bios file. However, that is not hacking OS X, that is hacking the hardware and the motherboard companies would have to send out cease and desist letters to the OSx86 project and no one has of yet. So, it is more like a no harm no foul type of situation. I am sure if someone was able to make money off it then the legal stuff would hit the fan.

the mac os x files are cracked to run on a standard bios. there is no hardware cracking. ive had osx84 10.4.3 on my laptop and it ran fine. installing mac os on a ibm compatibable only involves findding someone who will share a osx86 iso with you and installing it. its really easy
