Not sure how useful the build list is since he built a hackintosh. A hackintosh has some specific HW requirements Windows or Linux does not have.

I think it's a pretty odd presentation of information. He first says that it is a hackintosh, but then says it doesn't have to be (to which I would say "No duh"). So I feel like he could have suggested a much more economical build for what he's actually doing with his machine.

Another funny thing about the presentation is there's a "Step One" but then no more steps after that
.Seems very specific to what he wanted to accomplish. Even building a hackintosh he could have used an i3-2105 and saved some money. 8GB seems standard for a hackintosh. I bet he just really followed the tonymacx86 site to the letter.
