I can't disagree more. I converted my gaming machine to a hackintosh several years ago. My hardware is now a few years behind but it still runs great. It sat unused for months after I built it originally because using Windows was just painful. It's been my primary machine since changing.
Mind you the I didn't select the hardware with the intention of putting Mac OS on it. Doing system updates is pretty easy process. The only issues I have are with sound kexts but it's an easy fix. Most updates pose no problems.
The process is much much easier than I used to be.

I realize it is not equivalent. I never said it was. It fulfills the needs I have and is a very nice set of hardware.
Prepare to be disappointed with a Hackintosh, especially if you've never built one before.

And it's much easier if you pick hardware that is known to work.
I think AmVess is just trolling. Over at the forums on tonymacx86.com, there are a lot of happy people.
Why? Without any information, your comment just looks trollish.
Because most stock parts are slightly incompatible with OS X in very annoying ways.
