    I was hoping to install OSX86 on my new 1530, but I didn't know where to get the software, how to install it, and what bugs have been detected from using the software. Is there a guide someone could direct me to?

    Thanks in advance!

    You can't install OSX on non apple hardware . It will violate apple eula + you are violating forum rules by talking about installing osx on pc.

    Read the rules first

    Yeah. This post will disappear soon enough. But in the meantime, I'm reminded of Martin Sheen's quote to the General in Apocalypse Now...

    "Sir, I am unaware of any such activity or operation - nor would I be disposed to discuss such an operation if it did in fact exist, sir."

    As mentioned, Installing OSX on non-apple labeled hardware like your M1530 is against Apples OSX EULA and thus NBR does not allow discussion.
