Hackintosh and many other things

While I'm waiting to finally add the last piece of my technology puzzle, <Replacing the Phenom II X4 with an FX-6300>
I'm busy trying to get everything else running on this PC. I have a 1TB hard drive and I am taking FULL advantage of it.
For starters, I got Android 4.3 running on the PC. Yes. Android on the COMPUTER. it runs slightly wonky but I haven't added and adjusted any kernels like I was suppose to. it was just a test run C: Currently it runs noticing 3GB of RAM and all four cores. Oh, though it doesn't recognize the video card it still uses 128MB of its RAM. hey, 128MB Video RAM is still a hell of a lot to run on a mobile operating system.
Next off, I'm going to see if I can get Ubuntu 13.10 LTS <Long Term Support> on a partition. Since when I was installing Android before hand, it was giving me issues. It was a linux thing. Now, that Linux thing is solved, and I probably can install Ubuntu on a new partition.
LAST OFF: I will be attempting to install MAC on this. Mac OS Snow Leopard to be specific. Yeah yeah I know, AMD CPU. But i've done the near-impossible before. This would allow me to test things system wide when it comes to games, and just tinker in general. I know what I'm doing could potentially give me frustration in the short run, but in the long run if success hits, WHEN it hits, I'll be happy.
WISH ME LUCK.

Just remember to not fuck up the partitioning. One time I accidentally formatted the wrong partition because windows showed a different letter than the linux installer.
But yeah, do yer best :3
right now I'm having little luck with Mac. It loads on the PC but after a bit it locks itself up. Im pretty sure I need a new kernel. Where as Ubuntu just doesn't want to read the drives period. Like, I have 3 partitions on my 1 TB drive, and yet when I load Ubuntu it says in its drive manager that not only are there no partitions, it says that all of the memory <1TB> is free.
soooo I have a bit more researching to do.
