    - graphic works but kind slow and not fluently (dock hide and show freezes for half second)
    - I will try to put more ram to check if it will help
    - thinking about changing wifi modem for same which can work for netbook installer on Dell

    ABOUT INSTALLATION: I NEEDED TO REMOVE BATTERY FOR INSTALLING

    Thanks for your efforts guys! I am making progress getting AA 751H running; using the USB method the installer (10.6.0) fires up sweetly but no hard disk is seen. After a lot of testing I have found a AppleIntelPIIATA kext that appears to work, could anyone you a hint how to get that used in the USB method installer?

    Update on Acer Aspire 751: use the USB method but copied the AppleIntelPIIATA.kext from the Dell Mini 10 thread to NetBootMaker?.app, install went OK 10.6 running with 1366x768, No Wifi failed to get the AR5001 going, have just bought a AppleAirport? for £20 to replace it. RealTek? works just fine. WebCam? is seen on the USB bus but doesnt work, nor does the sound, but since the Dell Mini 10 uses the same chipset it ought to work. Just updating to 10.6.2 (fingers crossed).

    http://www.mydellmini.com/forum/general ... opard.html grab the mini 10 support files. Grab the AppleIntelPIIATA.kext; replace this kext in the netbookbootmaker.app (just look inside the pkg to find where to put), then follow the instructions for USB key with MAC.

    Tried same and my 751 is SL 10.6.2 now
    There is sound, Ethernet, no wifi and no mic still.
    I'm connecting via iPhone as modem to internet
    I'm sure there is some way to use as wifi modem too. Still searching.

    So good luck
