Build a Mac

It was a while ago I posted on this blog. So I thought I'd share my latest experience.

After using your MacEEE's for a while now, I guess you want more than one Mac in your house.
That's why I put together a great combination of parts, cheap but performs very good in OS X and works fabulous in Snow Leopard.

This is the exact parts that I use, except that I have a 8800GT instead of 9800GT (same card basically). I know this isn't the best performing computer, but everything works fine with Snow Leopard, and does not cost too much! I even got TV-out working, and digital audio (via SPDIF-bracket, sold here.

If there is any interest in this, I could write a tutorial on how to install on this hardware later on.

  2. Yes i was, i'm running Snow Leo on my 1005HA right now, I will write a guide, problem is, it's a little more complicated, because this time i used the best way (a vanilla install, no distro).

    Be patient!
