The first Hackintosh i built because of my GF back then, she was having a white macbook when I realized that OS' similarity is huge to linux, so I started to read about, and then I saw that actually I could build my own, so it was a small step from her macbook to my own hackbook. However the learning curve did decreased with the years, as install and configuration methods for fine-tuning and bootup on different hardware specs do vary and change a lot. But as a conclusion for me it was interesting to see that for the price of a mac mini I could put together a more performant HTPC that can run 3OSes then buying one mac mini and struggling with the limitation (memory/hard drive/graphics card etc).
