I call it, the Hackintosh (iHack for short)
How'd you accomplish that?
Excuse the cliché, but 'it just works' I'm really chuffed with it actaully - if it had more than 256mb of RAM, it would be a usable machine.

I see... #sits here pretending to know what the hell is going on# I wanted this account deleted, but not much unlike MySpace, they wouldn't. Well, here I have a little something.
FUCK YOU GYC.
Maybe that will get the profile deleted.

I had nothing against either Intel or AMD until recently. My parents and I use this company called Dell for our computers. Our last 4 computers have been Dell, and against popular belief, we have never had a problem with any of them. I own 2 Intel computers, a P4 desktop 2.8ghz and my pride and joy, my laptop, 2.0ghz core 2 duo, 2gb ram 667mhz, 256mb ati dedicated graphics, xp media centre 2005 (soon to be vista home premium in 3 days). I love it. Then just recently when Dell started putting AMD's in their lower end models, my sister needed a laptop so we decided to trial AMD. BAD DECISION. After only 2 months I want to get her an Intel. I am never going back to AMD. By the way what is the average temperature for a processor. My core 2 duo generally sits between 20 and 30 degrees Celsius. It goes up to about 45 degrees celsius when gaming. Covalent bonding- When two non-metals bond.

i have a intel pentium m with windows xp and its never falled me. My last computer was an intel as well and only once i gave it to mom to get this note book did it ever fail. (i.e. if you know how to work a computer and not crash it like an dumba** from not knowing about anti virus it should work fine) lol
good luck!

I prefer amd's they run at faster clock speeds than previous intel cpu's, eg a amd athlon 1.6ghz runs faster than a p4 1.6ghz

On your arguement, you would like a PowerPC G4 or G5. My 1.5ghz G4 can beat 2.8ghz P4 - and I have benchmarks to prove it! The G5 is even more amazing, they are 64 bit and everything.

Mine markets itself as a VIA C7!!??
Having just bought my 1GB of RAM upgrade *sits and waits excitedly by the door* I am just beginning to touch on hardware and stuff so ask me this question in a year and I might have determined which (if any) I prefer!
If only we could run PowerPC for Windows.. I wanted this account deleted, but not much unlike MySpace, they wouldn't. Well, here I have a little something.

Finally got your RAM! Trust me, you will be amazed how fast it will seem
There was a shortlived version of Windows NT that ran on PowerPC chips. Also, the 360 is running a version of windows media centre, and it has a PowerPC chip made my IBM. You never know, perhaps there is a PowerPC version of windows floating around
