Can i make my pc a mac?

[JaymanHD]

I found some bootable mac osx images on amazon. This brought me back to the old question. Can you turn your pc into a mac with these installation images? If so how would I do it? Thanks for the help.

As per the Apple EULA it's NOT LEGAL TO DO SO.

Hi JaymanHD,

As mentioned above, using apple OSX on non-apple hardware is a breach of EULA. Tom's Hardware doesn't condone the practice of bypassing EULA and is not the place to search for such a solution. If you want to run Mac OSX I recommend using it on Apple Certified products.

We can discuss the hardware freely but will not help obtained media, or assist with configuring, installation or troubleshooting.

Ok I guess knowing the specs wont hurt. If you would be kind enough to post them.

Why was this removed? I just watched this and it is not illegal. It is still windows 7 but is made to look like one.

I can tell you that you need a 64bit Intel i3/5/7 CPU for OS X to work. AMD CPUs aren't compatible at all. Also if you are going to be dual booting windows and OS X, load each on separate HDDs. Doing it improperly on the same drive will corrupt the MBR and window's bootloader.

Actually, you're allowed to use OS X Server in a virtual machine (which can be running on a PC).
