Does anybody know a way that you can run Mac OS X 10 on a pc?

Ive heard reports of people whove done it, but i bet there all bullshit.

the newest mac os i have run on pc is System 8 (even this is only partialy working, you can't run ppc software)

i don't think you can run anything higher. and i don't want to make the 600 meg download.

I used basalisk, the is the best free emulator you can get

I believe that no one has been able to create a power pc emulator. I heard it's because of the complexity of the RISC architecture of the power pc being too difficult to convert.

I think there exists one, but it isn't free

Its possible if you are running linux on your PC. (with a lot of tweaking)
See here www.maconlinux.com for a possible way...
Sounds like it would work but why would you?

well

if u have Win2k or XP and want to run Win98 for... software purposes
it's good?
