Won't work. Apple prevents it.

Yes, it can be done.

No, Apple doesn't want you to do it. And because Apple's EULA forbids it, the administrators and moderators of this forum forbid discussing it.

Its technically possible, but illegal. Apple continues to "hone" the code to ensure that OSX only runs on Macintoshs.
