That means the end of the Hackintosh era if the OS won't run x86, I imagine it won't install on x86 either.

Aw that bums me out, brings back a lot of memories. Though I assume it’s been effectively dead for a while.

I haven’t dabbled with hackintoshes in nearly a decade, I stepped away around the time iMessage started needing those extensive hacks to work. Things seemed to shift away from driver/bootloader gaps to faking Apple hardware. Years earlier, I had an Asus Eee PC (remember “netbooks”?) that ran macOS without any major issues. I even built a machine that I believed I could hackintosh easily, though it never quite worked as well as I hoped.

The era of random companies selling pre-built Hackintoshes was so cool. Kids these days probably wouldn’t even believe it if you told them, like how Netflix used to actually send you a DVD in the mail. :)

Tahoe is officially the last version to support x86.

I never liked the idea, either get Apple, or get one of the other OSes.

It was like getting a Fiat Coupe with a Ferrari logo.
