Hello, Thank you for the response!
I want to stick with a VM for a little longer, until I can 'justify' the hardware purchase to make a full blown system. I wanted to run ML since it is the latest, no other reason. Would you advise otherwise?
I took your advice and just tried it, here is what I can tell you:
Am I able to apply the latest Mac OS updates from Apple? Yes
Will Apple attempt to brick my VM? Not Yet
The questions I still have are:
If I create an Apple account should I use my real information?
Am I able to connect to the apple store and buy a legit license for Mac OS?
These questions aren't specific to my implementation, ML or a VM. When we do the things we do on this board, should we be hiding from Apple's servers? You can't create an apple account to download software from their store, even if all you want to do is download free apps, without Apple having a credit card number on file.
