I'm searching a good laptop for osx.
But I have few requirements:

CPU: i3 / i5 (not c2d etc)
Display: 13-15'' (nor more than 15,x)
GPU: nVidia (I think 3xx should be nice)

I want to find notebook with sleep / shutdown / power managment / video & audio outputs etc. working in OS X... so maybe somebody can help me :D

regards

The best laptop for OS X is an Apple if you want everything to work.
 
I didn't say "best" :D

Just only 'good' and prospect to full working with OS X in future :)

A used Apple laptop then.

Attempting to install OS X on a non-Apple laptop can be a lesson in futility and frustration. Some people after a lot of work can get most things working, but as soon as Apple releases a software update things have a tendency to break.

So unless you don't need it for critical work or want to do it for learning and the challenge, then go for it. Otherwise, not recommended.
 
I agree- if you've already got a PC laptop, and want to play around, yea. If you want to buy new- go with an Apple laptop. :thumbup:
 
I don't have at the moment any notebook. Only Dell mini 9 (I know it's hackintoshable but it perfomance is too low).

Apple laptop - not now... cause don't have enough $ :D
