If you know a U of M student, you can have them purchase it for around $30+<br>

i am forced to get free stuff right now due to huge financial constraints.<br>
me and my wife are both in school (she is going to le cordon bleu, sooo<br>
expensive) and our 2 kids get all of the cash i can scrounge up. they are<br>
awfully cute kids so i have to forgive them for using my hard earned cash<br>
for their diapers and food. ^ ^<br>
i am going to install virtual box right now and give it a go. (give it a<br>
go, been listening to too many british speakers latley)<br>

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

have<br>
vmware workstaion. i just couldn't get the disk to burn. it would go<br>
from<br>
a gig or something like that to 1 mb then errors; kinda weird, never<br>
figured<br>
that one out. i think software would be fine though i would have to admit<br>
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<br>

have<br>
Mac OSX 10.6.3 running on Virtual Box 4.x (on Windows 7). So you can<br>
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>
