Hackintosh Netbook Chart
Hackintosh netbooks are all the rage these days. But which one should you get? The fine folks at Boing Boing Gadget put together a nice chart of the most popular netbooks and their hackintosh compatibility.
No surprise, the MSI Wind is still your the best bet for netbook nirvana. Remember, you're still violating Apple's End User License Agreement, and all actions are still considered at your own risk.
You'll need a hacked version of OS X and some sort of external DVD or USB drive to put forth your master plan. It's a start, and with the user base updating the procedures in various forums, the transition becomes smoother each day.
If you have a netbook and have an itch to cause some havok, check out Boing Boing's full article and list of how-to links.

I'd be interested in knowing which Intel (Core 2 Duo or Atom) laptops that offer either a HD-DVD drive or Blu-Ray RW drive work with OS X. After all Netbooks don't offer a DVD drive.

The MSI Wind HackBook requires a a WiFi card swap, and the Audio does not fully work. I have to run a terminal command to switch back and forth between the internal (crappy) speakers and my headphones. So the chart is misleading. Oh, the micro phone does not work.Please Apple, make a netbook!

I have an aluminum 12" Powerbook G4 with Leopard installed, and it works great as a NetBook (runs FireFox, Office, etc.). Granted, it's not a "new" computer and the WIFI is limited to 802.11g without a USB dongle, but it's rugged and DOES NOT VIOLATE ANY EULAs.
