Not a Hackintosh fan
I have Hackintosh'ed a Dell Inspiron laptop I used to own (I forget the model number; it originally came with Ubuntu, but I've since put XP on it and sold it).

I think another data point would have been to say "Intel genuine and PowerPC" so we'd know how many of us don't hack an Intel machine. ---
EMOJO: mojo no longer workin'
PowerPC Macs?
I thought about it, but it seemed overly confusing for what I figured would be a relatively low vote count.

You will probably find it is higher than you think.

I just decommissioned my last PPC Mac last month, a G4 450MHz tower. Good old workhorse, joins the pantheon of super-reliable Macs over the years: SE/30, LCIII, IIci... ---
Don't worry, it's out of control.

I am young enough to forget PPC vs. Intel. All I know is that we have a G4 tower that theoretically runs Panther or Tiger. But we remain with 9.2.2, since my dad kind of likes it. Yes, we have 2 Intels: an iMac (2006/07) and an MBP (2007/08); both run 10.6.2.

Still running a PPC 12 powerbook G4 1Ghz.
Quicksilver does everything I need, and it's not just because I'm cheap
I upgraded my 2002 Quicksilver to a dual 1.8ghz G4 recently, so I'm not ready to throw in the PPC towel yet.

Great to see someone else still running a QS2002 as their main desktop. I'm still running the 2x1Gz with 1.5GB RAM, but dropped in a Sata controller to add a 500GB HDD to run 10.5.8, and a USB2.0/FW400 combo card, so I don't die of boredom waiting on accessing USB drives (flash and HDD) . My portable is right at the other end of the pile, as it is an Acer Aspire AAO150 running 10.5.8.
Tons of PowerPCs
I still have four PowerPCs kicking around:

1 Intel Mac Desktop (work)
Hackintosh is just a hobby
I voted genuine intel only since I have and regularly use a year and a half old iMac and a 4 years old MacBook. I have a few PCs that I've tried Hackintoshing, and I had success with one but couldn't find a driver for any of my network cards. I have no desire to use a large, clunky and loud machine when I have two perfectly sized, virtual silent machines that work great so I gave up trying to look for a driver. My desire to Hackintosh machines is gone for now since I pretty much had success with it. I may eventually get a NetBook and Hackintosh it though... it might be neat to have a tiny(er) Mac...

Your mistake in not including genuine Intel and PPC macs miscounted 3 PPC mac versus 2 Intel Mac in our family as well. You've made your belief that there aren't many mixed installations out there a self-fulfilling prophecy by not allowing us to report them and therefore not counting them. That a good skill to have if you ever quit you day job and decide to go into the anti-science global warming denial business.

I too, am in that group of users with both Genuine Apple Intel and PPC systems. However one of my PPC systems is a G3/2.66GHz -upgraded PowerComputing clone that I use for playing 10-20 year old games (which may or may not be considered "genuine" depending on your perspective), while the other is a Titanium Powerbook 550 (Onyx) used with a Nikon LS-1000 SCSI film scanner. ---
Fun will now commence!
