I was, for some time, running an Intel-based Compaq laptop with Mac OS X 10.5.x on it. I called it Frankenmac.
It did the job. It was unstable (if the screensaver kicked in, it would crash). But it worked.
Sadly, it had to go. I needed Snow Leopard for iPad development amongst other things, and I got tired of lugging the USB keyboard and mouse around for it (I never did get the drivers for the laptop keyboard and touchpad working).
So now I have a 13” white plastic MacBook. A little old, circa 2007, but give it 2Gb of memory and install Snow Leopard on it, and hey presto.
Somehow or other though, I still miss my Frankenmac.
