Still not keen on upgrading my Hackintosh to High Sierra. It's not as simple as merely upgrading via the App Store, since every new version of macOS requires new patches to make it work.
It's increasingly tempting to just get an iMac instead, or even simpler, just put my MacBook in a docking station.
What to do with the leftover computer, though? It's not even old. It has a decent CPU and GPU. I don't want it to gather dust in a corner.
@SuperFloppies Mine is an Intel i7 system with an Nvidia GPU, with an MB chosen for macOS compatibility.
@thor Hackintosh wasn't in the cards for this system when I bought it.
I could probably hack up a Darwin kernel that would boot up a stock ISO, but I don't feel like digging about the bowels of yet another operating system kernel.
@thor Though, I'd settle for a (working!) binary compat layer that would let me keep Linux and run macOS in essentially a container.
@thor Use it as a "experiment" system. Install anything and everything on it, just for fun. An idle system is a learning system!
@SuperFloppies If this was an old machine with low specs by today's standards, that would be a sensible thing to do, but this is not such a machine. I don't really *do* a lot of software experiments anymore, actually. I had my fun with that from age 6 thru 25. For the past decade, computers have become a tool for me, not a form of entertainment in of themselves.
@SuperFloppies Some people never stop toying around with things. I thought I was going to belong to that group, but I just... grew out of it.
@thor It happens.
@thor Oh, what'd I'd give to move my macOS from a mac mini to my Threadripper system...
I have yet to find an image that even gets past stage one startup, let alone reach the GUI.
