I need to turn my laptop into a Frankenstein that hosts both Windows 7 and an OS86X, preferably Snow Leopard.
Can anyone provide the help needed, perhaps some already downloaded DVDs, tips, websites.. There is a lot on the net, but it seems a bit involved and time taking that I am ready to give a bit more than coffee in return of the favor.
If anyone's up for the task, let me know.
I can't: OGERO DSL.
Does anyone have this image?
And Aj.. Can we meet up for this thing? Set your terms
yeah so what if its OGERO DSL, im using it and i using torrent as we speak

<admin edit: removed links to warez>
I mean I'd rather go get it on DVD in person instead of paying the $20 with my ass in place in the chair.
Aj, can we meet up for this thing or not?
Nice piece of hardware Arithma ... I got ogero to but i think some of those Mac OS for intel are available in some dvd shops the pirated ones, try that .. if you cant spare any bandwidth
agree with invo, you can easily find it, i know one place in Tripoli that has it, but i guess thats too far for you
Darko you from Tripoli ?
not really, but i spend so much time there, you'ld think i am, my uni is there and the center im taking the cisco classes in is there, why??
Yeah the hardware is awesome, got it from the US for $1050 a year ago. Saved by getting a vanilla harddisk without any OS.

[edit for the missed replies]
Ok, so if you can point me out to a place that sells this specific or something similar that works in Beirut, I can go and get it.
And tripoli is definitely very far for me but do tell me about the place, perhaps I can tell some friend to get it with them to Beirut
Nice job on the hardware bit ... anyhow am from tripoli and i got couple of friends who might have the Mac OS f i managed to get a copy of one will post it to you ! just give me a couple of days :P
You mean a hacked one, ready for installation on non-mac hardware.. right?
Am I missing something here as in, no need for a hack at all?
well the place in Tripoli is Intercom and its in Tha2afi Street. the place is pretty neat and they have all their products stored in a database that u can search in for anything u want.
You mean a hacked one, ready for installation on non-mac hardware.. right?

Alright man, this is going to be a blast if it works. Thanks a lot for the effort. I will have to get a larger hard disk first, so it may take a little while before I actually start this process.. Can I please have your number, PM if you can. I'll prolly be installing my Mac Frankenstein this weekend.
arithma, can you keep updating us with the progress? I'd like to know how it works out for you.
