    The huge apartments are kind of an acceptable break from reality for me. Yeah they occasionally have in-universe handwaves but the real reason is it’s a set and it would be hard to film in anything smaller, especially in a multi camera sitcom like Friends.

    I didn’t watch enough Sex and the City to see if they had an explanation for everyone’s wealth, but it was pretty clear that all the characters were wealthy.



  • I did not find it that difficult, but there was a lot of up front homework to make sure you had a compatible hardware configuration due to needing hardware which was supported by the limited number of Mac configurations. I recall running into a problem where I wasn’t getting a picture on my monitor and I could not figure out why since my video card was supported and the drivers were ok. The problem as it turned out? I had my monitor connected via DVI and macs had never supported DVI so there were no drivers. Once the install was done, it pretty much Just Worked. Linux installs are pretty easy these days but debugging problems can be very difficult. The hard part of the hackintosh was keeping up with upgrades, since they needed to be done manually (due to potentially breaking things).
