I'm building a very custom computer...I HATE WINDOWS!...Can I install OS 10 on my new computer...It runs an AMD processor...I hope I can...Help me out Notch

Sorry but.........No! Mac OS X is what it's name states,mac operating system 10 and like windows xp/nt 4.0 it is ment to run on the most current processors,while a mac has the power to emualte a pentium with mmx,the pc cannot emulate a g3/g4 processor,and to further point out how unlikely it is that mac os x will run on a pc(for now??????)it needs a native g3/g4 with atleast 128mb ram,to emulate that you would need some sick power(sgi/ cray/sun),but who knows maybe with the quick advances in computers i'll regret saying that someday??,but for now I haven't heard anything about an emulator that runs mac OS X.

Then again, you are doing something you can't do with a Mac... You're building a very custom computer. You might try Linux, depends on what software you want to run. Only other options are, buy a Mac (did i really say that?) or get over your hate-feelings and get W2K or XP (install them first, then install linux and double boot). Contrary to what some may think i don't like the way M$ conducts business any more than the next guy!!! If there were better choices to be made, i wouldn't hessitate a split second to make them. I don't know enough about OSX to comment on it but if what i hear about it is true i wouldn't mind having it on my PC(if this was a possibility) as a dual boot with Windows 2000 server (my preferred system - yeah, it's expensive and it's M$ i know, but so is a Mac (expensive i mean)). My system: Athlon XP 1700+ dualboot windows 2000 server (work)+ windows 98SE (play) 3 harddisks (12+20+80GB) 512 MB ram Geforce 4 TI4600 21" CTX trinitron screen Future plans: install Linux(triple boot) replace 98SE with XP run OSX in emulation mode? (well, we'll see what's up a year from now...)

Try Yellow Dog Linux 'the briq' thingy.. may be able to do something funky with that. It's like a whole chassis that sits inside your amd box in one of the drive bays. It's designed for linux, but if you are a tinker nerd.. who knows?
