    Could I literally make a Dell Mini 9 into a MacBook Mini someday?

    Just as an experimental "I want to own a mac but don't want to spend over $300" kinda deal, do you think that someday in the future I could take a Dell Mini 9 and make it into a mac with a macos and everything be functional? This would probably be quite a while from now (6-12 months) so if they still have Mini 9s they'd be better than they are today.

    Your not supposed to discuss this type of stuff on the forum... :(

    It's against Apple's EULA regulations....

    As mentioned Hacktintosh(OSX on non-apple labeled hardware) discussion is against the forum rules. If you want a mac, then purchase one...if you want to try something new, then look at a linux flavor like Ubuntu.
