What kind of write up? Just plain old wikipedia type info or a how to guide?
I can make the guide easily since I have a OSx86 box.

I'd give it a shot if I had the experience with running OSX on other hardware

A "how to" also crosses into murky legal/moral territory. Believe me I am not one to preach either one way or another  (We will not comment on how many CPUs my Tiger retail DVD has been installed on) its just an unfortunate fact.

That's when you have a big bold disclaimer stating "Do not try this at home or on any unsupported system/hardware"

"For informational use only."

Not one of you out there running it?  I doubt that.
I guess I will have to give it a go myself....and write it up under my surname "Stevie Wonderbread."  Oops, guess I will need to think of a new one now that you know the infamous Wonderbread is ME! shocked
