Xpost facto? Installed it onto the hard drive with a different machine and swapped it in there? Copied it over the network? Faked the screenshot?

There aren't a million choices.

i. VNC/Remote Desktop
ii. CPU upgrade
iii. Xpost facto or other installer hacks
iv. The monitor is secretly connected to another Mac
v. It's a full screen video or photo of OS X
vi. Virtual PC or other emulator running x86 OS X
vii. Linux running Mac On Linux
viii. You're lying!

This for a laugh thread is not making me laugh. I was promised something, and it wasn't delivered!

I'm voting you out in '08.

I think Jumbonium2007 needs to come tell us how he did it, and put us all out of our misery. Personally, I can't take the suspense anymore.

So the 3400 isn't running OS X at all.

Not remotely the same thing.

Ah, I kill me.

Damn, he gave it away already.

My guess would have been he did it through copious usage of lens flare.
