Thread: Final Version of OSX 10.7 or 10.8 on a Lenovo S10e?

Hey guys!

First time posting on this site, but I am in a little bit of a pickle...

So I am a student at the moment in Sydney, Australia, and we get free netbooks to keep after Year 12... Well I am getting mine in 3 days [Got confiscated for hacking it :P] and I was wanting to remove the Windows 7 Installation and put OSX on it instead.

I really want to use it as a replacement Mac until I can get enough money for at least an iPad, but for now I have only seen people running OSX Snow Leopard on their S10e's. I want to use the Messages App and Facetime, and I am fine with installing Facetime on the laptop, but I need to have OSX Mountain Lion in order to run the Messages App.

Since there are only guides for Lion DP1 and not the full version, I was wondering whether I could run the full final version of Lion on the netbook... Is there any real change?

Specs of the laptop are basic, apart from upgraded 2GB of RAM. They include:
- Intel Atom N270 [1.6Ghz] [32-Bit ONLY]
- 160GB HDD - But I will be swapping it out for an old 40GB one.
- 2GB DDR2 RAM
- 10.1" Screen - 1024x576
- Intel GMA950 - Worst Graphics EVER! :P

Any help would be amazing. Thanks in advance!

Lion because 32 bit boot is not longer supported as of 10.8 DP3 when they removed 32 bit boot and kexts. So you will be forever stuck with Lion.
