    I think you can only run versions of MAC OS that were designed for the Intel platform.

    There are hacked versions of OSX that can run on PCs, but out-of-the-box no Mac OS will run on a PC. This is a shame, if Apple would natively support PC rather than trying to force sales of the Mac by tying it to the OS they would gain market share.

    I did a search and found this article/how to site. Tells that you can install OSX Tiger on a PC. Since Leopard is the newest version of OSX, it's logical to conclude it will load on a PC also.

    Apple started using Intel chips last year, and though you mostly only find OSX on Macs. I think this is only because most people don't care or know that it can be done. You can buy a Mac now with XP installed.

    I've been thinking about buying me a Macbook Pro and setting up XP on it. Have a friend who has this setup and it is sweet. Certain key press and the screen changes to XP. Don't even have to reboot.
