No, I meant installing OSx86 on a pc without incurring irreversible braindamage. I have new respect for anyone programing a working installation of any software of any kind after trying for so long and so many times to install Leopard on a pretty generic Dell machine. In the end, it was not worth the effort, though that may be because I was never successful.
It would be a kick to get it working, but life is challenging enough without the crash course in computer science.
