I'm planning on picking up the Gen 2 that's $1500 during the BF hourly deals, seems like a decent price, although I could get a laptop w/ better specs for much cheaper I really want something that's sturdy w/ a nice keyboard, and hackintoshing it is something of a priority, wondering if you've made any headway thus far, in the past few weeks?
Any specific reason you're starting w/ Mojave instead of just going w/ Catalina now?

I built a desktop that I hackintoshed several years ago, but remember very little about it. That said, I'm enthused about this, and will do all I can to help the process along.
Looking fwd to hearing from you!
