Many are hoping that Apple will launch a Mac netbook sometime in the future. Alas, Steve Jobs has shown very little interest in the netbook market. Considering Apple's often impressive margins we can see how a cheap and tight Mac model would disrupt the normal order of business. Would the netbook market continue to grow Apple is bound to revise its views. At the same time it seems like there is an alternative for people who want to run Apple's Mac OS X operating system on a netbook, namely MSI Wind.
It's not the first time someone installs Mac OS X on a Wind netbook, but the problem has been the lack of a compatible driver for the wireless network circuit. It seems that Realtek, who makes the WiFi chip, has sent out a Mac OS X compatible driver to interested users. Hardly what Apple would have wanted, but on the other hand a highly requested driver among Wind users.
MSI Wind's Realtek WiFi circuits activated in Mac OS X
The new driver enables users to run Mac OS X on MSI Wind with all the features, something few other netbooks can brag about. Unfortunately this is most likely not encouraged or even allowed by neither MSI nor Apple.
