Even the Mac mini which used to be the "budget-conscience" Mac starts at just under $1,000. The new MacBook Air is insanely expensive at $1,099 and with dismal entry-level specs (like a 128GB SSD and Y-Series processor), a hackintosh laptop seems like the best way to go. Just like the hackintosh desktop builds we have done in the past, this one works great. Perfectly! And we're really excited to show it to you. It's a MacBook Air KILLER at just $279.
