Urgent...Please help me.....help for mac on vmware
Dear respected mods and members....
i need ur serious and kind help in this case....as i am stuck somewhere,i am myself advanced user but i cant sort it out....
i have mac osXLink Removed 10.5.6 dmg (retail),i converted it to iso with ultraiso and then tried to install that mac in vmware workstation 7.0....by following this tutorial....
Link Removed - Invalid URL

i found this tutorial very easy and not confused....simple steps...but problem is,i did all it said but when it comes to boot on the virtual machine,it says,hardware acceleration is not present....

my system specs are... dell studio 1737 laptop with 2.18ghz dual core,4gb ram,800gb hdd, and vga is intelLink Removed vga 4500mHD... i guess this vga does not have hardware acceleartion...i mean I THINK....but in dxdiag it shows it is uptil 1696mb with 256mb dedicated....
i have been also trying kalway v7 but no result....

i have successfuly installed ubuntu and fedora in my virtual machines and they work fine...but why mac does so....
i have following questions:
1.is that hardware acceleration so necessary that installation wont go on without it.
2.does any one know how to bypass this thing and continue to installation.
3.any other way to install mac on my laptop....

in my view,when ubuntu n fedora got installed,this mac MUST install too,but i am stuck...please guys help me out,i will be tons of thankful to u....

(my host operating system is windows7 x64 but when i try to install any other x64 os as guest...it says,cannot install)

Apple's EULA does not permit installing Apple software on non Apple branded hardware. Thus, it is not supported by VMware.

Can it be done ....yes. Is it legal....no.

Our company Orchard Parc has a different solution. We deliver integration technology that brings the Mac to Vmware, Xen and Microsoft. Apps can be launched locally or from the "cloud", and all data can be maintained securely behind the firewall in the data center. It can also be distributed to the desktop (assuming sys admin permissions) and re-synch to the server on re-connect. This addresses off line use.

The solution provides full "real time" graphics capabilities (not just streaming video) and full VOIP over LAN, WAn and WiFi connections.

And it is fully Apple EULA...
Microsoft Windows (3.1 and higher)
Linux (All major distributions and 2.4 derivatives)
NetWare
Solaris
MS-DOS
FreeBSD

No Apple to be found... funny, since Mac OS is derivative of the UNIX platform. But then again, there is something to be said about a company that massively locks down their phone products and so forth :/
