Hi,
I'm planning on installing Mac OS X (hopefully Mountain Lion) on my ASUS Notebook. Before I start the process, I would like to know if after you get Mac OS X to run properly on your PC is it possible to use Apple's Online Services like iCloud, Mac AppStore, etc?? Or do these services just not work unless you have a real Mac?? I've never really owned a Mac before so I'm not very familiar with this OS... I also would like to know if these services are paid or free, because for what I know these services are free to use when you buy a real Mac. Finally, are there any special requirements to create an Apple ID, when using a Hackintosh??

Thanks

Both of these work fine WITH the configuration I have but these parts were picked by the custom mac 2012 list.
