Great to hear, thank you!

Would you say a stable OS with no "why the hell did that suddenly stop working" events is reasonably easily achievable? Assuming best practices/choices for hardware, installation, etc. (Outside of major OS version updates, of course.)

The last time I had a hackintosh must have been 10-12 years ago. I distinctly recall hardware support, and OS updates being a constant source of pain. Since then I've owned nothing but Apple laptops/iMacs, but have experienced significant hardware problems with each one within ~3 years. The...

Writing to again thank you guys for your input. Lots of great points all around. I was 100% set on going the Hackintosh route until last night, when I discovered two new factors: Apple gives 10% discounts to students (ie. my girlfriend), and the newly released Macbook Pros can be had with 32GB...

Thanks, trs. Glad to hear that. I do recall using Carbon Copy Cloner before, which certainly helped put my mind at ease. I've scanned through a few of the "golden builds" and it sounds like there are some hardware setup that work great with very minimal effort.
