Speaking of which, I need to get a new phone now. My Ace II x hit the floor and the digitizer shattered, so now it doesn't recognize touch input.

Also, I was planning on having three different OS installations on my desktop:
Win7 -> Games
OS X -> Work, school, general use
Ubuntu -> If either of the first two fuck up and I need access to their file systems

I already have Win7 and Ubuntu, but it appears I'll have to buy a whole new hard-drive just to install OS X on it... I can get to theinstallation screens off the USB disk but I can't choose an install destination :\

Woah, 3 OS at same time? Too much, isn't it? :D Oh, sad to know about your broken phone. Sadly, shit happens...
Maybe someday I buy a console for games and then move to Ubuntu permanently. But for now... dunno.

Do you have empty disc partition? Because I think you'll need empty disc partition to install OSX on it.
Just random thought...

I have a 500GB hard-drive in my tower right now:

~400GB NTFS partition, has Windows 7 installed
~50GB ext4 partition, has Ubuntu 13.04 installed
~50GB HFS+ partition, no OS installed yet

I think the problem with the drive/partitions not showing up in the OS X install dialog is a side-effect of MBR, and all the patches/workarounds I've tried have failed so far in making anything (that isn't an external drive) appear in the drive list.

But I don't know enough about this sort of thing to say for sure :P

Why not attach the drive internally, install OSX, then use the drive externally afterwards by setting the boot option to that drive?

Because the OS X Installer won't recognize any storage drives connected to my motherboard through SATA or IDE, and it won't install to an external drive without some form of corruption. :)

I've all but given up on it, anyway. I've got OS X in a VM on an Intel Core i5 laptop with 12GB of RAM, so I don't really need to do a full-blown install anyway. I just can't do anything graphically intense, like 3D rendering.

Opera is only good for mobile phones tbh, it really lacks on the desktop end.

Somebody must be using Opera 15.

Have you tried Opera 12.16? It's full of features!
