Hey... were you able to install OS X on your m1330, I have a m1330 as well and I am able to get it running and everything but I only have one glitch, everytime I try to move the webpage using the arrow keys, the image stays right in the middle while the sides are scrolling, I can only view the web page, for example google after a search, by using pgdown or pgup... let me know, my email is at tatliti@yahoo.com
