i am forced to get free stuff right now due to huge financial constraints. me and my wife are both in school (she is going to le cordon bleu, sooo expensive) and our 2 kids get all of the cash i can scrounge up. they are awfully cute kids so i have to forgive them for using my hard earned cash for their diapers and food. ^ ^ <br>
i am going to install virtual box right now and give it a go. (give it a go, been listening to too many british speakers latley)<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Feb 24, 2011 at 1:36 PM, <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:dutchman_mn@charter.net">dutchman_mn@charter.net</a>></span> wrote:<br>

I did, burned it to an ISO image and went from there. I had nothing but trouble with VMWare, that is why I ended up using Virtual Box. You can run Virtual Box on a Linux distro, I am using Windows 7 as it is a work laptop. If you go down the hardware route, the challenge would be find something that can run one of the later versions of OSX Leopard/Snow Leopard.<br>

i tried downloading a mac os a few times before using a windows box. i have<br>
vmware workstaion. i just couldn't get the disk to burn. it would go from<br>
a gig or something like that to 1 mb then errors; kinda weird, never figured<br>
that one out. i think software would be fine though i would have to admit a<br>
actual mac would be a little more interesting; not quite sure why. i am<br>
going to school for computer science not computer engineering. so, either<br>
would be a great help! i have a dedicated linux machine now that i would<br>
like to learn how to use xen or something similar. anyway, in closing,<br>
software would be just fine...<br>

Do you need to learn hardware or software? The reason I ask is that I have<br>
Mac OSX 10.6.3 running on Virtual Box 4.x (on Windows 7). So you can work<br>
with the OS outside of the hardware. I did it in order to learn how do<br>
develop in Objective-C for iOS.<br>
