The steps from the site is simple enough for those who already own a Mac Just transfer the contents of the DVD is Snow Leopard on a USB stick (using a special tool – Netbook bootmaker) and change some entries in the BIOS to be able to perform Installation is very similar to the traditional one.
Most of the hardware is working perfectly from the first boot (sound, wifi, standby, shutdown, keyboard shortcuts and even the battery indicator) except for the touchpad, which needs a special patch to exploit the multitouch .
Within a few hours (preparation and installation of iso need some patience), here’s that little 10-inch Dell may be mistaken for a real netbook Mac (apple on the lid and benefits excluded).
All for 279 euro, or the actual cost of the Mini 10v with 160Gb hardisk.
