    As title says, can I install OSX without having to format my HDD ? I use Vista and I really want to try out OSX in my machine but I keep reading these posts teaching you how to install OSX from scratch .. :(

    Use partition magic/parted magic/gparted to create a new partition without having to format. Google them.
