I have an iBook, and I love it! I want to run OS X on my desktop, and I know that you can run it on an intel platform, but I don’t know about running it on an AMD platform. (I have an AMD Athlon XP 1.9GHz) it haz 380GB hard drive, and 512MB of RAM.

Thanks.

PS< if theres an emulator, I need a free one!

Hi. I recently purchased a Lenovo (IBM) ThinkPad X61 Tablet PC. I chose a hard drive that was 120 GB and 5400RPM. The OS is Windows Vista Business. However, now when I am looking at the “SW_Pleload (C:) Properties” (that equates to “Local Dist (:C)” on Windows XP), it says that the local disk has a capacity of 114,498,203,648 bytes, or 106 GB. What happened to the other 14 GB? This is not the used (nor free) space, this is the entire capacity of Drive C:. Did I get gypped? Or is this supposed to be like this? If you need any more information, just ask, and I’ll tell you.
Thank you.

i emailed the company because the specs stated that it works with “Windows 2000/ME/XP, 32 MB RAM minimum, 60 MB Hard Drive Space, USB port, CD ROM, MAC OSX”. i do have MAC OSX (i am on an ibook), but my hard drive has 42.57 GB, & i asked if this would be a problem (since it says you need 60 MB Hard Drive Space).They guarantee this is not a problem & will work fine? Would anyone know if this is true?

I even tried using the hard drive from my laptop( since they are both Dell’s) yet it still reads no operating system installed. What could be the cause considering my hard drive is good as it is the one i am on now. Could it have anything to do with it at one time was part of a server network?

10 20 or 30 GBs is all i can afford for a used ibook so please tell me which of those 3 would be a little more than adequate. i was thinking 20gig, but i’m just 13. what do i know.
