    Not easily, and definitely not legally. :(

    (Just to be 100% certain - you do mean PC hardware, and not Mac hardware, correct?)

    you also have to be careful because osx supports only a limited run of vid cards..... for the most part only up to 256mb of mem... any thing over that and you will have to flash the bios on your vid card ( if it will allow igt ) and you run the risk of pretty much destroying it

    Actually, the MacOSX EULA only allows installation on Apple-branded hardware. You can't legally install OSX on PC hardware.

    Maybe on a PC.

    Definitely not on a Mac.
