Charlie Sorrel over at Wired.com Gadget Lab, talks about his 8 months experience with a hackintoshed MSI Wind clone from Medion. His positive experience provides a contrast to Brian X Chen disappointment after 6 months with a hackintosh netbook.

His main reason for his positive experience?

He had low expectations for his Mac netbook. What he had was a rock solid Mac OS X netbook that ran for seven hours on a nine-cell battery and did all the tasks he wanted it to do. He says at the end:

If you are aware from the beginning that a netbook is a cheap, low-spec, low-rent kind of computer, with the cheapest, most plasticky parts, then you won’t be disappointed. And if you hack it to run OS X, and you have similarly low expectations, you’ll actually be pleasantly surprised. I love my hackintosh netbook. It’s not perfect, but is sure is damn useful.

I couldn’t agree more.
