Phoenix [80]

If the above Apple OS is to be installed on a windows computer, then the procedure to setup up the OS has to be the same as that used when on an Apple system, hence, due to the different processors and components of both systems, a virtualization will be be needed to be provided by a Virtual box, Parallels desktop or other virtualization software.
