I am very impressed with the look of this emulation of MAC for PC but I don't feel very comfortable in installing this software. Especially in reading the bad reports on desinstallation and bugs. I have a very low experience in Windows configuration and I am using my computer for music composition only.
Is there anybody around who can give me an objective point of view of the risk encountered in installing Flyakite ? Or an equivalent if safer ?
Thanks in advance for help

flyakite is the best you can try winosx but it destroyed my one computer i had to reinstal everything just go with flyakite its the best
Well, actually, Flyakite 3.5 seems to do a way better job of uninstalling now compared to Flyakite 2
The only issue of uninstalling FlyakiteOSX 3.5 for me was the user account pictures weren't deleted, but that can be done manually. Other then that, everything did restore properly.
it Definitely might be risky to uninstall, hell even to install. Now im not trying to give Flyakite a bad name because i downloaded it and it works perfectly, but that's just me. Make sure that if you do choose install it, you check off "Make a System Restore Point". So if anything goes wrong, you can do a system restore to before you installed it.
If you're uncomfortable, don't do it. That's basically the approach you should take to all computer (and in most cases, real-life) risks. Based on the experience you say you have, I wouldn't do it until you've got a few more months experience, and a full backup.

P.S: Not that I don't have faith in flyakite and his software, but it's still not a good idea if you feel that uncomfortable...
Yeah. Frankly, get a linux box, mmess aroud. YOu ow your way around? Time for flyakite.
i was thinking the same thing that nighcrawler said even before clicking the thread, lol.

1) Yes.
2) No.
3) Possibly, or it may work just fine. People have had mixed results. Don't install the Mplugin for iTunes, though.

1.) No. Installing Flyakite does not touch your system files at all!
2.) Yes!!!!!!!! You can run Safari, iChat, iPhoto and every other tiger compatible application out there
3.) Your computer crashing is not a risk at all. this is standard procedure for macs, it completes the emulation

I have to warn you that a week ago I had a serious problem with Flyakite.
The problem appeared sometimes (not always) - when I was trying to turn off the PC, I got a BSOD.
After re-installing Windows, I installed Flyakite as well... and the same thing happened.
So there's the solution that helped me: After installing Flyakite, it's a good idea to turn off the system files updater, then --> reinstall your VGA driver (JUST REINSTALL, DO NOT REMOVE IT FIRST, otherwise you may have serious problems).
I hope this may help someone, who gets the same trouble as me, I don't pretend that this works for sure. 
Greetings.
