    As the title says, has anyone tried to Hackinstosh a Razer Blade 14? I want to get one for some portable gaming, but I need to sell my Retina Macbook Pro to do that, and I wouldn't have a Mac then for development of iOS Apps. Since that is a must, and the rMBP isn't that capable of a gaming machine in Boot Camp, i'm looking to grab an RB14 and hopefully throw either a VM of OS X on it or a full fledged dual boot Hackintosh.

    Also interested in Hackintosh on the Razer Blade 14. If it is possible, would we be able to use multi-touch gestures in Mac OS X?

    Might be a good idea that you try OS X in a Virtual Machine first

    I don't think there are any drivers for the killer networking card.

    I am interested in this as well. It would be pretty sweet to install a second mSata SSD with OSX on it for dual boot goodness!
