Default EX58 UD4P Hackintosh - anyone?

Hi,

I don't know if this is the ideal place to ask but...

I've got a UD4P with an i7 920 and want to run it as dual-boot Win/OSX.

If any of you have tried building a Hackintosh with this board I'd really appreciate any advice you can give from the experience of your build!

I've not tried to build a Hackintosh before and am unfamiliar with OSX so please try and keep any advice simple! :)

Many thank in advance!

It's amazing people spend so much time on this crap then want to call microsoft an evil corporation even though there is no company as proprietary and willing to sue their own customers as quickly as apple.

I friend of mine once said, and I agree with it very much "We are lucky to have Bill Gates as the leader of Microsoft and not Steve Jobs, or we were doomed."
Court once ruled there should be a wall between Microsoft's OS devision and it's software development devision because it is unfar advantage over other software developers.
This guy own your iPhone it's OS, tell you what software you can and can't install on it, which telephone company you can use it with, and nobody says a word.
