Yeah, it was a quick, cheap, and "dirty" setup.. heh, grabbed a whole bunch of hose clamps out of my toolbox when I found that the hose seemed to be the wrong side. It said 1/2" ID on the label, but it would fall off the 1/2" fittings. Very strange, never run into that before.. Just crappy vinyl hose from the hardware store, maybe it's because it was thinwall.
I have installed OSX on probably 10 different PC's now, if not more. I own 6 hackintoshes right now.
That motherboard you have is EXTREMELY OSX friendly. Great board. I was so close to getting that board, I should have.
