New Hope it works out well.
I'm waiting to see what the next MBPs look like, and in the meantime putting a shopping list together for a pair of possible Hackintoshes (J has a dual G5 Mac Pro that's getting a little long-in-tooth, and I'm strongly considering taking the plunge). At the moment, I'm using this as a template - http://www.tonymacx8...f19cca636ce#p8722

Apparently 10.6.2 works very well with Gigabyte UD2 boards. There are still some teething issues with 10.6.3 on some Hackintosh machines, apparently - http://tonymacx86.bl...63-aftermath.html

But I haven't decided anything yet, and if it's like most of my major purchases, it's going to be a while (unless I win the lottery).

Cheers,
Scott.
(Who hopes his laptops hold together for a while as he doesn't expect the new MBPs to be groundbreaking. And who realizes that Hackintoshes are something you frown upon.)

New As someone somewhere pointed out...
...the top of the line iMac (27 inch) is a couple of hundred quid cheaper than a 30-inch Apple Cinema Display.

It's a massive monitor with free computer inside!

>sells to self as bargainous steal of the century<

Edit: Actually, it's not cheaper than the 30-inch Cinema. Don't care.
