Want to use the glamorous Mac OSX? Don’t have money to buy a Mac? That’s okay because a new guide has been released that will allow you to install Leopard version 10.5.1 in a single step to your PC.
You will have to meet some very specific hardware requirements, non-Core Intel processors are not supported (meaning anything in the Pentium line), Core Duo or Core 2 Duo processors are required. AMD processors are not supported at this time though a patch is in the works for that.
After confirming you have the correct processor, you will need a blank DVD-R to burn the ISO image files to. DailyApps has all the links to the files you will need to complete the installation.
However, some of your hardware may not work, WiFi cards and sound seem to be the most common but since Apple supports Intel, ATi and nvidia graphic cards there shouldn’t be any problems.
The installation files are about a 2.1GB download which will take a while no matter how fast your connection is and it is recommended that you burn the files to DVD at a slower than normal speed.
That’s just the preparation, to actually install Leopard, pop the DVD you just created in your drive, boot from it and let the installation begin.
Since Mac OSX Leopard uses the HFS+ file system, it’s not clear if you will be able to partition your drive and be allowed to dual boot Leopard and Windows XP/Vista. Try that at your own risk. If you can live with wiping your whole drive just to try this, it’s probably the safer method.
You didn’t think I’d let you off that easy, did you? This falls on a gray area of the law and violates Apple’s EULA. It’s only a matter of time before Apple puts an end to this and is it really worth the risk? That’s just up to you.
