I was in a similar position where I didn't want to spend the money on a full blown Mac especially not knowing if it would meet my needs. My intentions are to start writing apps for the iphone, but in order to you need to have a Mac. The Aspire One is a great netbook, and works really well with OSX. It was just what I needed to start feeling comfortable with the Mac OS environment. There is a huge community working on drivers and fixes for these OSX86 devices. So you will only see better performance in the future. I’m glad the guide was useful for you.

Thanks for taking the time to write it. This worked flawlessly on the 160GB Aspire One I just bought at CostCo. My 1GB RAM upgrade and 1390 wifi card are coming in the mail right now. I've bee wanting to try a Mac and $349 is my price point. I don't doubt that I'll eventually spring for a full-blown retail Mac after I have time to explore this one. Great guide.

Like the F1, F2 buttons, of the notebook function shortcuts. I haven't tested all the functions but everything should work as normal. which function keys do you mean?
