Apple has apparently struck a deadly blow against the burgeoning Hackintosh community by disabling support for Intel’s Atom processor in the latest version of Snow Leopard.
“Well, looks like I was right, again,” Hackintosh icon StellaRola wrote in an official blog post that confirmed earlier rumors of an Atom ban. “The netbook forums are now blowing up with problems of [Snow Leopard] 10.6.2 instant rebooting their Atom based netbooks. My sources tell me that every time a netbook user installs 10.6.2 an Apple employee gets their wings.”
Nevertheless, StellaRolla adopted an optimistic approach to possible future hacks of the popular OS.
“Just an FYI, this is OSx86 after all and none of the scenes hackers really let down on support. The latest kernel may not be ‘officially’ supported but that doesn’t mean there won’t be a modded kernel around the corner,” added StellaRolla.
