I will admit, I laughed at Kojo there.
I expect to see a full movie out of this.
He looks like Stephen Colbert
I'm surprised you guys didn't mention the multitouch trackpad. Nice feature for Windows, especially on a netbook.
I've got you beat. I live in a private subdivision, and after a certain point from the main entrance, any further house is lumped together. So some 35-50 addresses--in every GPS service I've seen (google included)--are lumped together as far as two miles away from where they are actually located, in what is actually a pond. Making it very hard for people to find our house using GPS. lol
Ok, I give up, in that title picture, what is that purple and silver thing that says "ALVA" on it?
I just want to know, 10.6 WILL be announced for release some time this year right? please. someone. I NEED IT!
I'm sorry, but I'm still confused. This is taken directly from the OSX86 Wiki:

Legal
Is it legal to download the Developer Kit Installation DVD?

Simple answer: no. It is not legal to download it, as the only possible use of the developer kit DVD is to circumvent its copyright protections to enable its use on a non developer machine. Remember that OSx86Project, it's owners and contributors do not condone illegal activity and will not provide information on how to obtain a download of this or any other copyrighted work.

Is this site illegal under the DMCA?

According to Wikipedia, "The Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) is a controversial United States copyright law. The act criminalizes production and dissemination of technology that can circumvent measures taken to protect copyright, not merely infringement of copyright itself, and heightens the penalties for copyright infringement on the Internet."
Our site is fully compliant with the DMCA. This site intends only to provide a forum for those interested in running OS X on Intel hardware. Anyone engaged in an active DMCA violation will be banned. For more information, review our Disclaimer here.
If you are either a lawyer or an Apple representative and have any concerns, feel free to contact us regarding any changes you feel necessary.

But aren't you trying to "circumvent measures taken to protect copyright?"

Absolutely not. This site simply hosts information about the TPM. We do not sanction the use of this information for anything other than educational purposes. Our intent is to learn more about the TPM - not "crack" it.

At wasabi: Thanks, I'll have to try that
At Gaz: What? you talking to me? if so, sorry, i only meant to rank my own
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I commonly need to boot a system from an external disc and take a snapshot of the host system. I also then need to burn a copy of the image to a DVD. While I can do it with two separate external devices, and two power supplies, and two I/O cables, it'd be nice to find a small dual-drive enclosure. It would need to have USB, eSATA, and FireWire. Either slim-line or half-height bay for the optical burner would be fine, and space for either a 2.5- or 3.5-inch hard disc. Any ideas?"
