I'm contemplating running OSX on my personal, daily-use work machine. I don't really have the budget to buy a new machine, or to purchase expensive parts upfront. Before I decide to invest my time, and potentially my money, I'd like to have a general overview.
1. Am I able to make my machine multi-boot? Imagine that I have an OSX, Windows and Linux disk. Is there a way of selecting which one at boot up other than via the bios?
2. Is there a program written that would scan my machine and just tell me outright whether my machine can run OSX or not? To tell me of any incompatibilities?
3. If I understand the process, it is basically this: IF I have compatible hardware all around, and the install doesn't work perfectly, the biggest part of my job will be, essentially, fiddling with settings or editing config files here or there. Is that about right?
