Thanks! I'm enjoying the time. Good to take a break. Probably going to be a lot of new challenges sooner rather than later. :)

It would indeed be my pleasure to cooperate with you guys in the near future again! Perhaps not only in terms of academic-industry-relationships but also on an individual level.. we'll see.

another hint for your little HacMac: turn off the access time stamping to speed up your SSD hard drive:

Hi Tom, Thanks for coming back. I always forget Alexis' middle name – I feel silly for asking now. ;) I'm sorry that the university project did not generate an elaborate case, but I hope we can perhaps do something together again in the future!

Thanks! Glad you liked it. Let me know if there are any topics related to it that I've left out or you'd like to see addressed. :)

Hi Vidar,
you're welcome, thanks for replying :)
I assumed you would know the guy, perhaps you call him Alexis or Boss, hehe.. As far as I know he is managing the company you work at. I met him and Reitsma for an interview, as I chose C+R for a university project, an entrepreneurial case study to be more precise. Unfortunately the professor only took the project into account for 20 percent of the final grade, so we could not really produce an elaborate case but it was still an enjoyable stay at the castle. :)

Hi Tom, Thanks for stopping by and thank you very much for the tips. Looks like the sort of utilities and mods I could use. Who did you meet with at the castle and who's Garcia? :)

If you'd actually read my post you'd see that I do not condone installing directly from the Snow Leopard DVD – although it is technically possible and even if it may be a legal gray area in your jurisdiction.

There is a world outside the US where doing what I describe in my post is legal and that's where I happen to be. Your mileage may vary. It's a beautiful world out there. Enjoy it – don't hate it.

It would be interesting if Apple decided to take noncommercial US Hackintosh fans who bought their Apple OSX to court, though. Wouldn't that be a great marketing move?

I enjoy OSX on my Lenovo S10e which works miraculously well
with a Samsung 128GB SSD in it, parallel to win7 :)
To further make use of the entire screen real estate while browsing
on your little HacMac, try this package for Safari:
http://www.machangout.com/
Apart from the rather annoying extra functions it allows you to browse
in a real full screen mode.
Additionally, I recommend “Right Zoom” from here http://www.blazingtools.com/downloads.html#Righ...
which turns the green maximize button functionality into something more useful for a netbook :)

I was really surprised to see someone from the castle use a HacMac, I was a visitor back in October of the last year conducting research for a university project.

Viele Grüße an Reitsma und Garcia! ;)
