That's not really a Hackintosh.

They existed about twenty years ago, when Macs were really expensive, so
you'd throw one together with parts you actually scrounged up somewhere
(though obviously the scrounged parts had to be Mac parts).

There was an article in Radio Electronics about it.

And "Tab Books" had a book about it, something like "Build Your Own
Mac and Save Money". Though by the time the second edition of the
book came out, it wasn't about trying to assemble a Mac, but upgrading
a Mac.
