Latest Snow Leopard Developer Build Breaks Hackintosh Support... Again [Hackintosh]
Gizmodo —
Enough with the back and forth already, Apple. If you're going to kill Atom support then just kill it. Don't toy with us, taking and giving like some sort of merciless god. The video above shows what happens if you try to boot the latest 10.6.2 developer build on a Hackintosh. As you can see, not much. So if you're running OS X on Atom hardware, hold off on any upgrades until this whole mess gets sorted out. [OS X Daily]

Apple Breaks Atom Compatibility Again?
Ubergizmo —
Does Apple like playing cat-and-mouse with various parties? Well, if the iTunes and Palm Pre issue is anything to go buy, Apple might get a little satisfaction out of it.

It looks like we will be seeing Atom support coming and going from OS X beta builds from now on. Some bloggers are asking, since the Atom situation is beginning to mirror game Apple has been playing with the ...

¿Otra beta de OS X 10.6.2 bloquea a los netbooks?
Gizmología —
Vale, dijimos que no habría más problemas entre Apple y los procesadores Intel Atom, por aquello de que una beta de Snow Leopard dejaba de lado los procesadores Atom para así matar de un plumazo los llamados hackintosh.
En el vídeo podemos ver como otra beta de Mac OS X 10.6.2 sigue bloqueando este tipo de procesadores. Lo que no queda claro es que si esto se debe a que es una versión en desarrollo nueva o se trata de la primera que no tenía soporte para estos procesadores.
De cualquier forma, los desarrolladores deberían empezar a pensar en un ...
