As far as MAC operating systems, go search the NET and you will find that there are people who have modified it to run on PC's and Netbooks.
Search any of the ISO torrent sites and I bet you will find a MAC ISO for your computers.
Just download the torrent, use a torrent engine like bit torrent, and go go go.
Yeah, MAC is superior to PC, but it is too expensive.
I am running UBUNTU due to the kind feedback I received here on Saabnet, and my old Celeron M is fast as heck.
My Netbook flies.
My dual core PC is like lightenning.
My dilemma is LINUX is not 100% compatible, so I run a dual boot with Windows or use Wine.
If you want you can search the UBUNTU site for the files necessary for using LINUX on the MAC you own. Then dual boot it with MAC software.
I hope this helps.
Best,
U2bC
