About installing OSX in your Windows computer, ask BigN, because he is trying to do that. Mac OS X is approximately $130.

So you want to go about installing OSX on your PC, eh? Well, there's some things j00 needs to know.
1) The only way to get OSX onto your PC is to download a h4x3d copy of the OS off of your favorite BitTorrent client. Therefore, it's free.
2) Installing OSX on your PC requires you to dedicate the entire HD to the OS, you can't partition it (although I've heard of some cases where it works...)
3) There's a good chance that your computer may not be 1337 enough for Rosetta, which allows you to use programs written for PowerPC Macs, unless you're 100% sure it supports SS3, which allows that.
4) After installing OSX, which should take about, oh, say...anywhere from half an hour to an hour (I hear), the OS should at first be sluggish, you'll have to to delete a .kext file in order to get the OS up to running speed again.
3) Hardware support ain't gonna be too good, although people are writing new drivers all the time.
