hi
i am working as a network troubleshooter in an ad agency, i am a beginner in the hackintosh. i have managed to install kalyway 10.5.2 on a dg33fb board with core processor. i have also tested some graphic programs on it and so far they have been working fine. now my questions are

can hackintosh be used instead of macs, i have showed the hackintosh to some of the people in the agency and so far they have liked it which is due to the expiration of the all the warranties of macs and second due to the budget cuts.

now i need to know should i do this and put hackintosh as an option ,

and second how would it perform when used for design purpose e.g final cut, 3d ,photoshop cs3 and 4 and etc

i would certainly appreciate the help.

Does this ad agency feel comfortable breaking the law?

I would loooooooove to know this answer to.. but pretend he never said anything about his ad agency... Pretend he only asked about using it for personal use only and just for trial purposes. I also am interested in using it for graphic design and also audio production purposes, running Reason and Logic pro. Are programs like these able to run smoothly just as it would on a normal mac machine?
