How can install OS X on PC from CD

[wingstech]

Hi:

I want to install OS X on a PC. The most installation images I found require me to burn them to a DVD and run it. But I do not have DVD burner. Where can I find install images which can be burn into CD? Thanks.

It's illegal to install OSX or any other on a PC.

That said, welcome aboard.

He's right you know. You must not be naughty!

Anyway, I don't think there are any CD images of OSX and even if you would find them (why not upgrade your CDRW drive to a DVDRW, it's cheap enough?) I doubt that these images would work with your hardware. It can be quite a chore to get working.

And if you're done installing it's pretty limited. You can't update, you can't upgrade etc.

Just do yourself a favor and get OSX legit, get a Mac (they can be found everywhere on the cheap if you look for them). You won't regret it.

If possible, get an Intel powered mac, like a Mac Mini or a Macbook. You can always run XP or Vista on it quite nicely (depending on the hardware ofcourse).

Kind regards,

Vigoras
