Hackin' away

[libertango]

James Fallows of The Atlantic recently did a review of Scrivener. As part of that review, he said, "I can happily run any Windows program on a Mac, but things don't work the other way around."

I let him know that it is possible to run Mac on a Windows machine, it's just an intricate process.

Today, Jim writes up my introduction to him of the "hackintosh", complete with photo I provided from when I did this myself a few years back.

I love Scrivener. It is like the writer's equivalent of a programmer's IDE (Integrated Development Environment).

Mind you, Scrivener isn't perfect and I wish it was scriptable so I could add some functionality I want. But it is the best writer's tool I've ever tried.
