Add to the list my Dell Vostro 1710!
The install process was from a 10.6.3 retail disk to the 10.6.8 combo meal. I followed the instructions from this site and all went smoothly with one exception. I added a kext for Sleep, VoodooSleep.kext, which caused an error upon reboot. After a brief panic from the realization that I know NOTHING about an OSX system, I rebooted with the install disk, deleted the offending kext and was back in business after a reboot. After a short search, I found the kexts for the wireless, Broadcom43XXFamilyrev2.kext, battery indicator, VoodooBattery.kext and trackpad, VoodooPS2Trackpad.kext, dropped them into the /Extra/Extensions directory, a reboot and I had wireless, battery indicator and trackpad. Very, very nice!!!
Also, the system would not recognize my iPhone 4 until I updated iTunes to 10.6. I ran Multi-beast after the update and before rebooting, per the instructions. One more reboot and boom baby, I have not looked back!

What Works - *=after updating the software or adding a kext file
Camera
*Wifi
Ethernet card
*Battery indicator
Audio
*Videos - they worked after the initial install, but only the original size - resizing would get a blank window, but after works fine installing the latest 10.6.8 updates.
*iPhone is recognized only after updating to iTunes 10.6
Screen max resolution is 1440X900, which is what I get with Kubuntu and Windoz
Mouse worked
Trackpad works - but double tap doesn't work
Volume control from the keyboard works
Screen brightness control from keyboard works
Microphone works
DVD eject works - this laptop has a "soft" eject button
Keyboard Song controls work
What doesn't work -
Shutdown down - the system will almost shutdown the drives, display and keyboard lights, but I have to finish the job by holding down the power button until the light on the power button goes out.
Haven't tried Sleep mode - don't really use it.
I have since installed Firefox, Garageband - from iStore, MS Silverlight, LibreOffice, Epson & Canon printer and scanner drivers, Dropbox, Skype and some tools from the iStore.
The only complaint is that the keyboard functions like cut, paste, home, end "CNTL arrow" don't work the same. And then there are the sounds - this thing barks and growls and spongs and dongs and I have no idea what it means. So, I end up peeling back the windows to find the reason. Not a complaint really, just kinds funny to see how engrained certain keystrokes can become.
I think that's everything
/EDIT-------
Am going to build an iBoot SD card and just leave that in the internal SD card slot to boot from.
Sigh of relief - no more Windows!
My Dell must feel like Donkey on Shrek 1 when he said "You hear that Shrek, she think I'm a steed, she call me a steed." "This OSX call me a Mac Book Pro. It think I'm a Mac Book Pro!" Heh, it is!
Thanx for a great step-by-step.
My wife's laptop is next!
Cheers
