Boa Noite. Já tentei várias vezes instalar muitas versões de MAC no meu pc mas nunca consegui. Gostaria de instalar a versão mais recente, penso que seja as 10.8. Será que alguém me pode ajudar?! Como fazer? Nao tenho o dvd original do MAC. Obrigado. E peço desculpa por estar a publicar aqui, não sei se é o sitio certo.
