Default Need an Apple Netbook Now? Do It Yourself.

http://www.appletell.com/apple/comm...-a-dell-mini-9/

"Is the World Wide Developers Conference too far away for you? Are you desperate to get your hands on an Apple netbook straight away? The folks over at TestFreaks.com couldn't stay away any longer, so they took a Dell Mini 9 and decided to install Mac OS X Leopard. The process seems surprisingly simple, and gave them a fully functional MacBook Nano (or close enough) within an hour."

I've kind of been waiting to see what Apple comes out with this Summer, and if the rumors are true that they will indeed make a netbook. It is something I could use around the house, or more specifically that my wife could use so my MBP doesn't get seized from me. But I digress into something more appropriate for Dr. Phil's website. Anyway, this tutorial over at the Test Freaks blog is very specific and easy to follow along with should this interest you. I may give this a go depending on what is announced this Summer at WWDC, or sooner depending on if my wife reads this story.
