Computer Rebuid to Mac IOS

[Seymour Butts]

I have an HP EliteBook (somewhat surplus to requirements)
Current specs are HP EliteBook 8740w (Core i7-720QM 1.6GHz, 8GB RAM, 500GB SATA HDD

I would like to rebuild this unit as a Macintosh running the latest IOS.
However it's not a learning curve I wish to undertake myself.

Are there any tech members here that might be interested (for a fee) in building it for me ??
Cheers

Why not DIY?

To get an idea how this is accomplished watch this 15 minutes video:



How to put Mac OS X (e.g. Mac OS X 10.10.3 Yosemite ) you have downloaded from elsewhere on a USB-stick is shown here:

I know how it's accomplished Joey and as I explained it's not a learning curve I wish to undertake.
This is only required for a very close personal friend who is incapable of doing it herself because of her current medical condition.
If I was to undertake the learning curve it is something I would only do the once.
I personally don't see the point in that and am really not interested in discussing anyone else's point of view either, I'm simply interesting in contracting a service.

OK, I understood.

But before you pay someone who claims he is experienced in this, run a little (freeware) tool on the Windows PC to be converted: . This because OS X requires at least a CPU ( doesn’t matter if it's an Intel or AMD ) that supports "SSE 2" instruction set or above instruction set.

Thanks Joey,
I was actually aware of that and had previously checked, but thank you - appreciated.
The Core i7-720QM actually up to SSE4
