There are many other solutions that have been discussed in the forums in the past.

Angry Ninja Aspiring developer Posts: 1045 Reg: Aug 25, 2013 Maine 17,150	10/17/13 06:53 AM (12 years ago) I used a hackintosh for the first year I was using xcode... never had an issue. My second choice if I only had a PC would be to launch Mac OS in Vmware or some other virtual OS solution installed on your windows machine. Other than the above two options, you could get into a real mac that would be good enough to run xcode starting around $300 Comments I used a hackintosh for the first year I was using xcode... never had an issue.
