Can't say I have, although I did install OS X 10.4.5 x86 (I think it was that version?) on VMware on a windows host some time back. I couldn't install the VM tools so I couldn't get my resolution above 800x600

Whoever has, better be doing it on Mac Hardware, otherwise it goes against Apple's EULA and discussion would probably get this thread closed.

EULA says apple labeled computer not mac hardware... So you should have said this.

Now that they switched to Intel Processors, any computer can have Mac. It's called a Hackintosh. :)

Which is completely missing (or ignoring) the point that it goes against Apple's EULA

Nobody but Apple can put Apple label on your computer. If you put it yourself, you are are infringing their trademark. So it is still illegal.
