See here, when you are making a copy of a famous product, you might as well make something that is capable of running the original software as well, right? Yeah, that’s what I thought. It is the first rule in the “Fakers’ 101″ handbook. So anyway, you have all been looking at the MacBook Air fakes from Chinese makers ever since Steve Jobs pulled that thing out of an envelope. Now see one of them running the OS X.
Yes, if you have ever wondered about it, now you have you answer. Yes, some of them apparently can run the full OS X in all its glory. Isn’t that simply… umm… yeah, slightly meh. Still, these cheap fakes are really… cheap, they are thinner than competing netbooks and some have a larger screen. So if you can hack your way into making one run OS X for you, things are all the merrier.
This version however is a netbook sold by an entity that is currently flying under the Apple radar. They are asking for your credit card number and even though the price is $325 (man that’s a cheap Hackintosh), losing your money and identity may not be worth it you know. Just look from a distance and appreciate the many hours it must’ve taken to make this thing work.
The ‘HackBook Air’ video can be found on the other side. If you have a hackintosh you would like to show off, please do so by all means in the comments section! If yours is really good, it gets covered in a separate post dedicated to it. How about that?!

MSI Wind netbooks have been very well received in the market so far and now their new netbook is likely to have a similar or greater amount of success. MSI claims that the new Wind U115 Hybrid netbook has the world’s first hybrid storage technology in a netbook that enables it to have amazing mobility and battery life.
