Hackintosh's are not for the average user.
In the past, I've had some weird stuff (cheap peripherals with generic drivers, special peripherals that had special capabilities and wonky drivers, etc...) that sometimes caused issues, and I enjoyed the hunt and trying to get stuff to work. But that's when my PC was just a PC and if I took a day or two to get it fixed, no big deal. I just had to do without games and pron

Now that I often work from home 2-3 days a week, I NEED the box to just work.

I won't allow automatic updates to install stuff anytime they want, but I want to be able to perform updates when they come up without having to worry too much about any big failures.
