Hi people
This is my first thread so I am sorry if it's in the wrong section.
I was wondering whether it is possible to Hackintosh my laptop which is a Sony Vaio VPCEB46FG.
I don't care what version of Mac OS X it is. I just want to be able to run Xcode and other development tools.
The specs are as follows:

This was the only information I could find on the Sony website. Please tell me whether this laptop is hackintoshable. If so, what method should I use, what kexts do I need, etc. etc.
I would greatly appreciate any help you give me. THANKS!
