Are there any laptops that support macOS but are NOT Apple hardware? I dropped my MacBook Pro and need to replace it, but I am holding off because the hardware is almost the same as when I bought it a few years ago!
Can anyone recommend a laptop that supports 32gb of RAM, would run MacOS (or Ubuntu, I could get used to) and made of something besides metal? I have allergies to nickel, cobalt and gold. You would be doing me a solid!
- sebazzz 8y agomacOS is not supposed to run on non-mac computers, or are you referring to using a hackintosh setup here? (which is, iirc, not allowed by the license)
- jason_slack 8y agoI get that the license doesn't allow it. My argument here is that I am so heavily invested in macOS for the last 20 years that switching completely, instantly, would be a productivity killer for a while. Apple is starting to disappoint in the hardware offerings. Apple, do you know how much money I have spent on your hardware and software over the last 20 years? At least 10 laptops, iMacs, a Mac Pro. iPhones, iPads (always times 2 as my wife upgrades too). Are you seriously going to make me move to another platform?
