Hackintoshes require special modifications, both in software and hardware, and the discussion of such modifications happens already in the appropriate forums. Such forums are:Would like to know if it's have any Hackintosh section in the forum? I didn,t found one.

Would like to know if it's have any Hackintosh section in the forum? I didn,t found one.

Are you really sure about that? I see a very small amount of threads overall on the subject and most of the traffic gets advised to go to the speciality sites mentioned above in this post. Those sites can do a much better job addressing a topic that is very controversial.
Not to mention that I doubt that Arn or the other sites want to deal with the potential of dealing with the subject in an objective and legal way since there is no real way to do it legally (it only can be done by violating the SLA of Mac OS X) and the debates on the subject tend to get very little progress (and most importantly dont require a whole dedicated sub forum).
But honestly, I doubt there is enough interest to sustain a dedicated to to the subject, and the context is such that I doubt that Arn wants to be seen as endorsing or encouraging such a task anyhow.
I'd rather have hackintosh section here at MR, than going somewhere else for it. How about?
This is a very good explanation as to why we don't have a section for this. There are other sites with more resources for it and, more importantly, it is a violation of Apple's SLA and posting about it on MacRumors would be a violation of our rules as well.
OsX = MacRumors, on any hardware, capish?Hackintosh = PC hardware
IOS devices = Apple hardware
MacRumors - Apple specific
What's not to understand here? This is a site for Apple items.
Hackintosh threads are permitted here at MacRumors. The OP and some other members were looking for a dedicated forum for such discussions. As it stands, there's only been a handful of discussions spread across the OS X and hardware forums. Most of the time, respondents point the OP to tonymacx86 and InsanelyMacHackintoshes are not Apple approved hence no threads.
Hackintoshes are not Apple approved hence no threads. Likewise talk about anti-copying software circumvention and the like. Common sense, really. Not a big deal; just accept this isn't the place for such discussions and move on.
Jailbreaking isn't Apple approved yet there is a whole section dedicated to it here.
It is actually law in the UK that it is illegal to eat mince pies on Christmas Day. But nobody cares because we all know how stupid of a law it is.
