HP ProBook
4540s
Hackintosh Ability: As usual, the HP Probook takes the gold medal for Hackintosh compatibility. The amount of development that has gone into making Mac OS X work on this laptop is unprecedented-- virtually every single feature of this laptop works in Mac OS X, including sound, graphics, power management, sleep mode, the HDMI port, HDMI audio, the battery meter, USB 3.0, USB 2.0, ethernet, and multi-touch gestures on the trackpad. If you're looking to set up your first-ever Hackintosh, and you really want it to be a laptop for some reason, then choose the 4540s.

HP ProBook 6470b or HP ProBook 6570b
Hackintosh Ability: As previously mentioned, the 6470b and 6570b are essentially just beefed-up copies of the 4540s, with bigger screens. Therefore, it's little surprise that both of these models are just as compatible with Mac OS X. Like the 4540s, virtually every feature of the laptops works in Mac OS X: sound, graphics, power management, sleep mode, the HDMI port, HDMI audio, the battery meter, USB 3.0, USB 2.0, ethernet, multi-touch gestures on the trackpad, etc. Other working features include the Displayport and the card reader (as long as you disable Firewire in the BIOS of the laptop)-- the 4540s doesn't include either of these features.
Lenovo Ideapad U310 or Lenovo U410
Hackintosh Ability: In terms of Mac OS X compatibility, the Lenovo U310 and U410 work just as well as the very best of the HP ProBooks. Nearly every part is compatible: sound, graphics, power management, sleep mode, the HDMI port, HDMI audio, the battery meter, USB 3.0, USB 2.0, ethernet, multi-touch gestures on the trackpad, brightness controls, and the camera. The only feature that's particularly finicky is the SD card reader, which doesn't work after the laptop wakes from sleep mode. As usual, you'll have to replace the WiFi card to have proper WiFi (and Bluetooth).
Lenovo G580
Hackintosh Ability: Like other Lenovo laptops featured on previous iterations of this list, the Lenovo G580 offers a reasonably good, if not perfect, alternative to the laptops of the HP ProBook line. Almost all of the laptop's major features work in Mac OS X, including sound, graphics, power management, sleep mode, the battery meter, USB 2.0, ethernet, multi-touch gestures on the trackpad, the camera, and brightness controls. However, the sound only works with the VoodooHDA kext, which is generally considered an inferior solution to the more standard AppleHDA kext. In addition, sleep mode is a bit finicky, but also workable. As usual, you'll have to replace the WiFi card to have proper WiFi (and Bluetooth). The only features that don't work at all are the card reader, USB 3.0, and HDMI audio, none of which are necessarily make-or-break features.
Acer Aspire S3-391
Hackintosh Ability: Although it may be less well-known than other laptops on this list, the Acer S3-391 is agreeably compatible with Mac OS X. Almost all of the laptop's major features work correctly in OS X, including sound, graphics, power management, sleep mode, the battery meter, USB 3.0, USB 2.0, ethernet, multi-touch gestures on the trackpad, the camera, and brightness controls. As usual, you'll also have to replace the WiFi card to have proper WiFi (and Bluetooth). The only feature that doesn't work at all is the SD card reader, which is no big loss.
Dell Latitude E6230 or E6330 or E6430
Hackintosh Ability: The Latitude series of laptops has historically been very well-supported by the Hackintosh community thanks to the efforts of OSXLatitude, a Hackintosh forum that was once dedicated solely to installing Mac OS X on Dell Latitude laptops (although the website has recently branched out to other laptop brands as well). The E6x30 series is no exception to this precedent; essentially every feature of these three laptops works in Mac OS X, including graphics, audio, HDMI audio, HDMI output, sleep mode, ethernet, USB 3.0, the webcam, CPU power management, and multitouch (for which you'll have to install an extra experimental driver).As usual, the WiFi card needs to be replaced; this also means that the Bluetooth probably won't work. Finally, the battery meter may not work in OS X Mavericks, although that remains unclear.
