“I had to download some special program for Windows that could unpack a .bz2 file, my WinZip didn’t know how to handle it.”

That is the reason I have always used Winrar. It can do so much more the Winzip. Get it from http://rarlab.com and enjoy.

Hey have you figured out how to get the video working on your 9600? I’m interested since video is the only thing not working for me right now.

Here are a couple of tips. You do not need an extra hard drive. You can use dd and gzip and copy the image directly to a 6.5gb partition. Here http://wiki.osx86project.org/wiki/index.php/Install_On_A_Partition_Simple_And_Accurate

I used the chain0 which works perfectly if you follow the directions. The wiki page is the most comprehensive source on the net right now.

OK, an update here. I fixed the CPU problem some people had mentioned, following these easy steps here. I was going to next try to get the audio to work but then I did something terribly wrong: I installed Windows Vista on the same computer but on one of the other partitions. Now I get the HFS+ partition error some people have mentioned. Looks like I'll have to explore some of the dual boot options people have mentioned.
