I think there are plenty of reasons. You might like the OS a lot but not care about Apple's feelings. Spite is another one. Or fun. It's a neat thing to do. Ha

Spite is another one. Or fun. It's a neat thing to do. Hacking-wise.
You might want the high performance hardware without the premium price.
I've considered it but will probably go Linux for my next desktop work machine.

- jacobush 7y agoIf in earnest, yes. But if more like in jest, than actual hurt feelings spite, why the heck not. It can be fun. My somewhat humorous take back in the day - the terms said the OS must only run on Apple labeled hardware. So I labelled the hardware with a couple of Apple stickers. That should do it, right?! :-D (If I recall correctly the stickers even came with the Snow Leopard DVD...)
