not really worth it unless you have a super-fast computer... and the only version that will run on a PC is a hacked beta version of Tiger for Intel that isn't exactly stable. If you really want to try OSX, your best bet is to get a Mac mini... they're kinda cheap (as far as Macs go).

not really, you can run the version mac released for developers, you just have to have a second hard drive...and a lot of time to figure it out.

hey if you want to really get involved in it, it can be done. OSX is actually a shell for a unix system, so you could turn your pc into a unix box and install osx over it, but i really have no idea how to do it and there might be some glitches because you wouldn't be using a motorola chip, but hey beggers can't be choosers

I've seen Linux distros that I mistook for OS X.
