I think I'm right in saying that hackers have managed to get OS X running on a PC. In fact, I seem to recall seeing that at least one multi-booting package specifically supports OS X.

It has puzzled to me for some time that Apple does not release OS onto the wider PC market. I guess they calculate that loosing control of Mac hardware would be a bad move - can't say I agree with that decision. Just look at Microsoft and IBM in the 80s - IBM nearly went bust making hardware and MS got huge making software. Even now, IBM has just sold off a large part of its hardware division to Lenovo (China).

Kaled.
