I can vouch for the i5 and the CD/DVD drive- same as mine! Otherwise, looks good- it should work 100% with the Boot CD method. But make sure you get a properly working graphics card- very important.

Got exactly the same card. It works with NVenabler64 and both the DVI and D-sub connectors work (not sure about the HDMI, not tested it). Full acceleration is also enabled, but the exact card and GPU isn't detected properly.

tonymac, he is great ! With the blog, I could make up my first
pc-mac machine. And I could dual boot snow & win7 from one hard disk !
Thank you tony and many users comment.

An easy alternative is to purchase a cheap USB audio card. This one is pretty cheap, although not very fancy:

I think that basically any USB audio card will work with OS X, so that one should work. Plug it in, tell Mac OS X to use it in your system preferences and you're all set!
