> [@Joe](#): > > Apple puts a check in their install CD’s to make sure you’re using one of their PC’s. There are workarounds that let you do this with a patched install DVD, if you’re so inclined. > example: [http://dailyapps.net/2007/10/hack-attack-install-leopard-on-your-pc-in-3-easy-steps/](http://dailyapps.net/2007/10/hack-attack-install-leopard-on-your-pc-in-3-easy-steps/) werd, had it installed on my computer for a short while (honestly, I’ve been using windows for so long, I found it counter productive to use OSx) as for the hardware, it’s all pretty much the same these days with the exception of the motherboard and some other junk but the audio, video, memory, processor, etc is all made by the same suppliers Go with whatever you can work faster on IMO. Also, if you go Apple, don’t upgrade the memory through them, you’ll pay out the ass for it. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/apple-vs-pc/50523)._
