Depends what you mean by “Mac development”, really. You can't do Carbon or Cocoa development, but CoreFoundation is (nearly) there, along with the BSD layer, NetInfo, launchd, configd and so forth.

I believe the issue has been settled, but with all due respect: Unless you are an impoverished hobbyist(1), I doubt it is worth the time and effort - legal issues aside - to do either Darwin or Mac development on a machine other than a Mac.


"Get a Mac" from eBay, a G3 fshould be able to run Tiger (10.4), and a G4 will probably support Leopard (10.5).
Or, do the right thing and get an Intel Mac an throw your old PC out ;)



That sounds like a good solution. I know my parent's old iMac SE (the graphite coloured one)
ran Jaguar without any problems (never got round to upgrading to Tiger for them). If the local
university has Macs, maybe they may know a place to get second hand Macs locally.
