when you guys say that your REAPER on a mac is 'sluggish'. can you please explain exactly what you mean? does it use more CPU? more RAM? less stable?

I wouldn't buy parts specifically for a hackintosh. Assemble a good (WIN) PC and be happy for the option to do a hackintosh. It's really no brainsurgery anymore to install OSX. Dual boot is also no problem. Get a Gigabyte Mainbord for Intel and a standard Nvidia card and you are done. I have an Q6600 and it runs just fine.

here's a current test of x scaling done on windows 7 vs OSX snow leopard using cubase 5.5, the results are pretty much the same for reaper 3.6 and presonus studio 1.5 The results show what most of us have experienced in the real world when using both platforms. MC

Win7 all the way if you use Reaper! if you need mac or some mac only software then Hackintosh is a defo penny saver IF you can afford to invest the time! Subz

Instead of taking the time to build a Hackintosh, just get a Quo, they guarantee that you can use any OS, including OSX, Windows, or Linux.
