Mac OS X Running on Non-Apple Hardware

MacBeliever writes "Inevitably, Mac OS X for x86 has been hacked to run on a non-Apple PC. Is this the beginning of the fulfillment of the Dvorak prophecy?" RetrogradeMotion also writes "The OSx86 Project has posted a how-to guide telling how to run OS X on any Windows or Linux-based PC using VMWare." Not 100% corroborated, so ingest with salt.

    Why so much bitching about the cost of hardware ( just compare like Dell systems and you'll see this is a myth) and "how cool it'll be to develoe everything on one box" when what you are doing is STEALING! You work hard at your coding, IT support, etc. and don't deserve being undercut- what makes you think you have the right to undermine someone's hard work? Grow Up- it's not legal because 'eveyrone is doing it'

    I know you're just a troll, but anyway... having driven many cars, trust me, BMW is more than just a prestige brand. It handles better than any other car I've driven. In my mind, the question of repair frequency is automatically skewed against expensive cars, because people who buy expensive cars are less likely to let small things go unfixed. I certainly haven't noticed any undue maintainance problems with mine.
