OSx86 10.4.4 Security Broken

[psf[i]-[Tomek]]

Happy Valentines Day... from Maxxuss.

The hacking guru has announced preliminary patches for Apple's latest release of OS X for Intel, version 10.4.4.
This is a preliminary release of my Patch Solution for the official Mac OS X on the Intel platform. Ultimately, it would allow you to run this Mac OS X release on a generic x86 computer (SSE2 required). Link

There's still a lot of work and documentation to do, like support for SSE2-only CPUs, a proper installation procedure and a PPF patch. However, if you like to play around, this will get you started.
The significance of this event is huge. While many users were able to run OSx86 on their PCs last summer, the general feeling was that Apple hadn’t implemented their final security solution. That much was true.

Onlookers have told us that 10.4.4 is a serious step forward in security, utilizing many of the same technologies as the 10.4.1 and 10.4.3, as well as the obfuscated code that Apple filed a patent for a few months ago.Few expected this final version – or at least the version that shipped with the first Macintels – to be easy to hack.

What this means is that Apple’s best attempts to secure their OS have, ultimately, failed. For its best efforts, the company is unable to lock OS X to their hardware. Without doubt, this will have profound impacts on the company’s future as running OSx86 on a PC becomes less a hacker’s trick and more mainstream. When all it requires is the downloading of a DVD, that’s certainly the future we’re looking at.

This also opens a host of new questions for Apple, OS X, and the PC users who love it. Will this mark the beginning of Apple’s legal endeavors to keep OS X locked down? Will it persuade Steve Jobs that releasing his OS is an insanely great idea?

Sweet...

Zbilja ne kužim zakaj Jobs toliko inzistira da MacOS bude samo na njegovim kompovima?! Puno bi više zaradio od prodaje OSa nego od hardwarea. Isto kao što M$ zarađuje više na Officeu neg na vindozama. Čudan je stvarno, zna napravit heben MP3 player (i što je važnije hebeniju marketinšku kampanju) ali zato nezna da bi korisnici poharali dućane kad bi pustio MacOS za x86 u slobodnu prodaju...

Daj Bože da sad konačno počnu teć aplikacije i igre za Mac pa da konačno se mognu maknut sa vindoza! Skupite ruke i pridružite mi se u molitvi...

P.S. jel ima MacOS u dućanu (i koliko dođe) ************************
? Bye, bye Vista...
