Idk what the word for it is

Hackintosh typically refers to running not-MacOS on apple hardware? Imo this project of removing almost all of the inner guts and using effectively a Frankenstein'd collection of things to reconstitute it into laptop needs a different word.

Looks like Windows with a very MacOS-esque theme rather than a proper hackintosh, the screenshot says Windows 11 IoT Enterprise.

Hackintosh refers to doing things the other way around: running MacOS on non-apple hardware. So no, this is not a hackintosh.
