Sure, I can help with that. Building a PC for your birthday sounds exciting! Since you're coming from Mac, you'll need to switch to Windows setup. Bootcamp is a tool that lets you create separate partitions for Windows and macOS on one hard drive, so you can run both operating systems. It’s possible to set this up on a PC, though it might require some technical steps. Let me know if you want more details!

The idea of Hackintosh is familiar, yet I have limited knowledge about it.

Consider using a Hackintosh setup. It might let you choose between Windows and OS X when starting up.

Hackintosh and bootcamp are similar approaches, but hackintosh specifically refers to building a Mac-like system on Windows hardware, while bootcamp allows running macOS on Windows using virtualization. They both aim to replicate a Mac experience within a Windows environment.

Hackintosh isn't great, and I prefer Linux over Mac OS X. Installing Linux feels much better!

Mac OS X is available on non-Apple hardware and functions based on the parts used. Bootcamp is a tool for running Windows on a Mac, originally developed by Apple. If Bootcamp works on your Hackintosh, Mac OS X remains your primary operating system, though you might also run Windows separately.

ElementaryOS is excellent; I strongly endorse it.
