Netbook

Why are only some netbooks able to run OSX?

MSI Wind U100
I know a MSI Wind U100 as good as Dell Mini 9 have been means to run OSX flattering good now, though we was wondering because alternative netbooks have not progressed with OSX.

Does it have to do with a processor (Intel N270 in both a U100 as good as Mini 9 IIRC) as good as a graphics (Intel GMA 950 in both again)?

Thanks


There are 4 suggestions to question “Why are only some netbooks able to run OSX?”

  1. It’s because of the hardware that is used in the making of the computer. OSX can only support certain hardware because of the drivers that come with it and that are compatible with OSX. People are in the process of making drivers for other computers and hardware though.

  2. Because netbooks aren’t built to run OS X.
    Apple only wants their operating system to run on overpriced Apple hardware

    And they try real hard to keep it from being installed on non-Apple hardware

  3. It completely has to do with the hardware and who your selling it to. windows and mac have lists of hardware that they can have drivers for and so certain computers are made with commen hardware so that all the drivers are allowed to be installed and some want to sell a computer to a certain group like walmart shoppers so they dont always design or have a reason to make a computer better for other operating systems.

  4. Because it is illegal to run OSX on any non apple computer
