[Hidden-tech] Hackintosh

[hidden-discuss at lists.hidden-tech.net]

If you are using your Hackintosh for personal use, then you may not run legal problems…

However, while the methods Apple uses to prevent macOS from being installed on non-Apple hardware are protected from commercial circumvention in the United States by the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA),[4] specific changes to the law regarding the concept of jailbreaking that permitted the practice has thrown such and similar circumvention methods into a grey area and even made some of them perfectly legal when carried out by end-users for personal use. (From Wikipedia)

For commercial use, I would think long and hard about this.

I use a PC running Resolve and Vegas Pro for my video work. It did need upgrades (memory, disk space), but is more than useable. Might it be cheaper to switch you software to a less expensive PC platform? Just food for though.

Hi there.  My application is high end video editing.  Need lots of processing power and a robust GPU (nVidia, CUDA).  I'm deeply invested in MAC software but looking for an alternative to over-priced, high-end Mac hardware (common refrain, I know).
Thanks,
