It is illegal for a couple of reasons
1. There is currently no retail version of Mac OS X for Intel, it is only bundled with shipping computers. Any copy installed on a generic PC is one of these bundled OEM copies of Mac OS X, and is only for use with the computer it shipped with.
2. Installing Mac OS X on non-Apple hardware breaks the Mac OS X End-User License Agreement ("EULA")
it's already been done months ago, look here http://reviews.zdnet.co.uk/software/os/0,39024180, 39235916,00.htm. it's a little picky with the hardware, not to mention illegal, but both AMD and intel cpus have been used, and there's even hardware video acceleration with a supported video chipset.
