I have:

  • a desktop PC (Athlon 64, 2 cores)
  • ...that came with Windows Vista,
  • and a retail DVD of Mac OS X 10.6

I want:

  • to install Mac OS X through Hackintosh (I believe my hardware is suitable),
  • to also run Windows Vista with full 3D support for video games and Youtube,
  • to also run Debian GNU/Linux with optional 3D for work.

I don't think my CPU supports VT-x, but it should have AMD-V. So the question is:

  • Can all of this be done with Xen (Xen on bare metal, all three OSes as guests)?
  • Or should I just try to install OS X first and then run Vista and Debian in Parallels?
