An article dated Nov 12 (!) on the Miami New Times website has an interview with the guys behind Psystar. I found this quote particularly bereft of any sense whatsoever. It reminds me a of the old CherryOS scandal.

Quote:
In fact, members of one such group — the "osx86project" — have since claimed the Pedrazas used their work to hack into Apple's hardware.

Rudy scoffs at the idea he borrowed from the Hackintosh scene. "The first thing you have to do is unlearn everything you've read online about how to make this work," Rudy says, "because it's all wrong."

Robert says he found his own way around Apple's built-in security devices. The breakthrough meant that, among other things, the cheap machines were virtually immune to viruses and hackers.

Spend 100$ more on the newer model where the main specs that change is 40-80GB more harddrive space and like a 0.2Ghz increase in speed, or just use that 100 for the taxes or accessories lol

Whats your thoughts? ]]> Opinions and Discussion. truehybridx http://www.hackint0sh.org//showthread.php?t=95564 Processor Upgrading http://www.hackint0sh.org//showthread.php?t=94798&goto=newpost Wed, 28 Oct 2009 04:31:01 GMT Firstly, I'd like to say I know this has probably been discussed a million times over on the internet, but all I seem to find are out-of-date discussions. So I'll make this thread because of the new release of the i5, i7 iMacs.

I have a real mac, not a hackintosh, but this might become related. I have a 24" iMac from Intel Core 2 Duo @ 2.8GHz. (Model ID is iMac8,1). It can play most games I want it to, but not all. Therefore, I have already ruled out getting a new graphics card, unless it IS possible, unlike the rumors on the internet, I'm just going to try to attempt at upgrading the processor some time after the Applecare expires.

So, first off, and before "TOO MUCH SOLDERING!", I am a very adept at soldering, is it possible to upgrade the processor?

If the pins are soldered in place (in which case I can't get it, as IDK how to solder that deep without ruining the processor), could I use a solvent or solder removal?

If they are not soldered in place, I'll assume the new i7 iMac, while it is bigger and probably has more space for more of a cooling unit and larger fans, is thinner and has an aluminum backing rather than my plastic. Therefore, cooling might/might not be an issue. What do you think? Will it be? Should I add a fan internally or something externally (which is possible, cut slits where needed and attach a fan to it)?

Would I need to edit my BIOS? Or is SnowLeopard special in knowing to adapt to this now?

Would the i7 for some reason not fit? or have a different pin configuration?

Anything else I might be missing?

and before I hear build a hackintosh/don't game on a mac, TOO BAD, I'll DO THIS IS I CAN!





hope I sound a little less stupid than another person coming to a forum to the first time and asking "HOW 2 upGRADE PROCESSOT TO 7i!". I know the feeling of being a "regular" on a forum and getting questions from hopeless people.

tl;dr: How would I go about upgrading a processor from a IC2D 2.8 on a 24" iMac?

and thanks. :P :) ]]> Opinions and Discussion. Yopladas http://www.hackint0sh.org//showthread.php?t=94798 Banned?
