11/8/2022 0 Comments Multibeast hackintosh![]() It is a little slower of course, but not much different from what you would expect with Windows in the same scenario. Have not done it with Yosemite, but I did with Mavericks and Leopard and it works fine for the most part – no reason to think it would be different with Yosemite. If so, what VM, and how was the experience? :/ I wish Apple offered me something that I wanted to pay for so I could avoid spending time trying to solve these problems but alas they don’t… Also I’m using the Ozmosis Bootloader that is baked into a custom rom for my board (GA-Z77X-UD5H) it’s pretty neat if you guys have editable nvram. That being said, my Hackintosh is not playing very nicely with Yosemite and being that it’s an Ivy Bridge it cannot properly play any DRM video content from iTunes, which really sucks.in addition to iMessage/FaceTime is currently broke and I’m having major issues with certain USB devices when waking from sleep…. If they offered something with 3 or more PCIe slots (with the ability to add newer video) a socketed processor and removable ram that was available in the $1,500 – $2000 range for the basic model I would gladly purchase something from their Hardware. They don’t care.Īgreed! They don’t offer a proper desktop at any price point anymore, all their offering have everything integrated, there are no more PCIe slots on even their Mac Pro!!! That’s unacceptable, I love their operating system and their “ecosytem” but I do not love their hardware offerings. In short it may be “wrong” to build a hackintosh, but it certainly isn’t wrong enough that Apple gives a flip. But see how far you get buying their razors and trying to get your razorblades from someone else… Thing is though if you bring your own razor but still buy their razorblades they don’t seem to mind much (which is obvious from their behavior). They just figured out how to make that model work without forgoing profit margins on the razors. Apple has exactly the same business model as Gillete – they sell razors (hardware) in order to sell razorblades (accessories, software, music, icloud, their appstore cut, etc.). ![]() Yes, contrary to popular opinion Apple is not a hardware company. Why? Because it threatens their actual business model. They move mountains to kill that off at every opportunity. They certainly don’t encourage it, but they are perfectly happy ignoring it because it is no skin off their back.Ĭontrast that with jailbreaking iphones – where ironically Apple actually does get the hardware sale. They could quite easily put a stop to it, but they don’t bother. As long as it isn’t being commercialized it is nothing but upside for them. Do you know how many times Apple has introduced counter-measures designed to stop them from working? Zero. People have been running hackintoshes quite effortlessly for at least 5 years now. If they sold a version of the Mac Pro with a consumer level gaming GPU for a decent price I would buy it (and forego internal expansion) – but they don’t. Apple simply doesn’t make such a machine at this time. I simply want a small mini-tower with good performance, internal expansion, and a gaming capable GPU. I would happily buy a machine from them if they sold what I want (or anything even close to it). I don’t feel the least bit like I am taking advantage of or defrauding Apple, they make plenty of money off of me. If you actually asked people who are running hackintoshes I think you would find most of them are like me – they run them because they want to use OSX on a piece of hardware that has a feature set they cannot get from what Apple sells (unfortunately). ![]() I have a 2014 Macbook Air, a 2011 Mac Mini, 2 iPads, 5 iphones in all (family of 5). Yes, technically you may be “defrauding” Apple by doing this, but reality is the vast majority of people running hackintoshs actually do own a Mac, many of them (like me) own more than one. I think your being a bit myopic about it – not everything is black and white. ![]() No, what everyone is saying to me, is that is fine to defraud Apple in hardware sales just because you happen to sometime in your customer life to have bought an Apple system. ![]()
