I've tried a few times to get OSX running under Windows using VMWare, but always had problems. I finally managed to get it running, and usable by following this guide: http://www.sysprobs.com/easily-run-mac-os-x-10-8-mountain-lion-retail-on-pc-with-vmware-image {"name":"607665","src":"\/\/djungxnpq2nug.cloudfront.net\/image\/cache\/9\/2\/927d1453ed6b34fb80389fe3c7c32176.png","w":1680,"h":1080,"tn":"\/\/djungxnpq2nug.cloudfront.net\/image\/cache\/9\/2\/927d1453ed6b34fb80389fe3c7c32176"} Now I just need to decide what I'm going to do with a Mac installation.

Make music, do video editing, make iPhone software... Any reason you did not go for a native install? It's not much harder than a vm one. Agui GUI API -> https://github.com/jmasterx/Agui |

Steve Jobs ghost is going to hover over your bed and stare at you while you try to sleep. They all watch too much MSNBC... they get ideas. |

Every time I try to virtualize OSX I fail, possibly because I use virtualbox and have an AMD processor... I wonder if this vmware thing is free. "For in much wisdom is much grief: and he that increases knowledge increases sorrow."-Ecclesiastes 1:18 |

True, that is a pain I endure. But for what I use it for: Home Music Production, I need all the power I can get Agui GUI API -> https://github.com/jmasterx/Agui |

I virtualized OS X on OS X host but have since deleted it. I needed a 10.7 system to test. Now I have 10.7 (and also 10.6) installed on external 2.5" hard drives.

It is possible to get working on AMD, but you need to use a variant of osx86 that supports it out of the box. it takes kernel hacks (extra drivers). That said, you'll get the best experience from intel hardware. -- |

I have an OSX inside vbox running under Linux to do this: http://allegro5.org/tests.py I'm just using iATKOS though since after uploading my actual OSX image and following guides all day it ended up being the only thing that worked -- |

Probably because my brain could not fathom something so unholy as MacOS X on Windows.
