Hackintosh- Is it legal?
Hackintosh- Is it legal?
Checking local laws varies, but using purchased OSX disks for a hackintosh is generally legal as long as you comply with applicable regulations.
Uncertain about this, the CoC warns against hackintoshes, but as spwath mentioned, what if you purchase the disks? I believed it was okay as long as you used a current Apple device to install the OS and then stopped using that device until you ceased using the hackintosh.
That approach could violate the EULA because it involves modifying or bypassing the original software restrictions. Using such methods is generally not permitted under standard licensing terms.
The EULA states you're limited to using it on Apple devices. Installing it elsewhere violates the agreement.
