My intel machine I'm building will run windows and OS X hackintosh! Problem solved!

Wow my ssd just came in, Samsung or the USPS need to learn how to handle a package. very disappointed

Well, I'll most likely be getting this laptop soon?

Guess I'll drop the specs, too.

Acer V5 laptop
http://static.acer.com/up/Resource/...1-531-petra-silver-touch-product-sku-main.png
Windows 8 64-bit
3rd gen Intel Core i5 processor (dual core, 1.8GHz/2.7 GHz)
Intel HD 4000 graphics
8GB DDR3 SDRAM
1TB serial ATA hard drive
15.6" 1366x768 (yeah, I know?) TFT touch screen
2500 mAh Li-ion 4-cell battery
Optical drive (not needed but a plus nevertheless)
$649 at Costco

So not the best specs, but definitely great for the price. I don't need something too high-end anyways.

Have you checked Best Buy? I saw a similar one in Canada but it had an SSD drive for the same price.

Do you have the maximum specs for what OSX supports?

I'm 99% sure my specs fit, except my haswell processor the only build that supports it is mavericks which I plan on getting when it drops or getting my hands on a beta build

Lucky! I am for the iOS but not Mac. For some reason I'm really excited for the droid ultra and the htc one coming to Verizon and don't know why

I like the droid ultra because of battery life hope that stupid carrier doesn't make it US only.

I was pissed at Microsoft earlier, but a phone call later, and they made it more than right. Would like to run Ubuntu to check it out. Not sure I could run osx.
