    I know it's possible to dual boot Mac OS and Windows, but will the Mac OS be glitchy? I've done it with Windows & Linux.

    Anyone else tried this before?

    You won't be able to utilize the specs of your pc. So it maybe slow at times

    It's a lot easier done with Intel processsors. In fact, I wouldn't even bother with it if you've got an AMD processor.

    EDIT: I see you're asking how it will function. From my experience it worked fine on my Laptop. I hardly ever experienced any bugs (but then again, I didn't do much). As for my Desktop, I have an FX-8320. The installation was a headache, once I finally got to the desktop, the OS didn't recognize my videocard and couldn't install the drivers for it because it didn't recognize my LAN card. Like I said, it's not worth the trouble if you're using an AMD processor.

    Alright, thanks.
    I have an FX-6300, so I won't try it any time soon.

    Will work fine, as fast as your hardware is as long as it works with OSX (i.e. not using incompatible hardware) so yes, will work perfectly fine.
