It is time for a new mac

[bucko]

but Steve Jobs wants so much money I more than likely couldn't pay it off in a year. (I do graphic design/web dev.) I want to be portable so its a laptop for me. Have any of you done hackintoshes? I have an empty credit card so I *could* bite the bullet and purchase a MBP, but in the interest of having less debt, I'm considering a hackintosh with retail snow leopard. Opinions? How have your favorite apps worked on those?

Thanks! I'm leaning towards a MBP just because I'm not sure I feel confident enough to maintain a hackintosh. I pretty sure with a MBP that I'll get excellent customer service when things go wrong-with or without warranty. I've never had a problem with the apple store.

I love the idea of a hackintosh for the sheer reason that I love the idea of customizing a computer past what's prefab. I'm just not sure I could keep it running if I got a last minute deadline or who knows what. Perhaps I've completely bought into the marketing! :D
