    Yes there is a way of having mac on pc, but not in "legal Terms" it must be a hacked osx version.

    Go to this page:
    -http://www.osx86project.org/
    You can download mac os x86 in bittorrent.com

    It isn't illegal to talk about bittorrent. In fact, bittorrent itself isn't illegal either.

    There is no risk sharing those links.

    The illegality is sharing copyrighted material through bittorrent. Bittorrent is just the tool.

    It also has legitimate uses.

    i used osx86 way back when if first hit. I did run quite well, as it should since apple has been codeing for intel use since osx was officially released. There was a list of components that worked natively in osx86 and i belive,if i remember correctly, that the dev. units were intel motherboard based. which would help you since you have an intel motherboard.
