Yeah, it takes a little attention but if you can build a computer and do a little research you can get yourself a fairly inexpensive "Mac Pro".

  Is the trouble really worth it to save $200? It has to be one of those "just because I can" things for most people who do this, right?

    In evilduck's case, it's ~$200 more and 2 processor cores less.

    I agree. A lot of people (myself included) buy "real" Macs precisely because they don't want to have to deal with this sort of stuff.

    It's basically a hobby project. You could arguably save a few $k building a Mac Pro clone, but if you really need a Mac Pro level machine then you probably shouldn't rely on a Hackintosh. It certainly kills the "just works" aspect of Apple products.
