Build a Cheap Hackintosh - MOBO/CPU/VIDEO for $124 shipped! Gigabyte GA-G31M-ES2L and Pentium E5200 Dual-Core RETAIL combo ($106 FS), PNY 8500GT Video Card ($17.99 AR/Bing)-——>>>>>>

If you go through with that you should buy rev 1 of that motherboard on ebay. Rev 1 has compatible onboard Ethernet. If you buy rev 2 you will have to buy an Ethernet card because the onboard one is a hassle to deal with in OSX
