    Yes, it does. You can find a lot of information about the Hacintosh here: http://forum.insanelymac.com

    I've seen these computers for sale on apple.com with Intel dual-core processors. So I would definitely think it does support dual-core.

    What problems are you having exactly?

    Notice the keywords "downloaded" and "intel version".

    So this means he downloaded the Operating System then? Sorry I am not very familiar with Mac if it's an operating system; I thought Macs were based off of Unix.

    LoL. I needed to download it for it to work on intel.

    The problem I'm having is that once it boots it asks me to reboot again, and /i read online that MAC does not support dual, you have to disable one core....

    DUH really can't get it :S maybe it's just a problem with the installation.

    I don't Hacintosh,
    However there is a legal computer that is for sale that runs Mac OS X. I feel better morally when I buy it from a company. Some research found that it is legal, but is against the apple software agreement. They call it the Open Computer , by Psystar.
    Not trying advertise or anything, but it is there
