Depends how good you are (or how much time you want to spend) with hacking your system.

I had VMWare running, and it would be slow and occasionally freeze for no reason. I also tried installing iDeneb to dual boot, and it was a pain in the ass and didn't work.

Mac Mini's are about $500+. A used macbook pro can probably go for $700-$800.

I was hoping to do it with either a VM, but fall back to a hackintosh if I had to just to get going, then once I had some experience under my built an idea I wanted to really execute on, go buy a used mac, or a mini.

Not seeing a lot of positive experience with the VM approach, however...

Shame
