I have heard of VMWare and Virtual PC which emulate WIndows OS' on WIndows OS'.

I am interested in the new Mac OS X Snow Leopard adn was wondering if it is possible to emulate the new Operating System on a Windows PC (Either XP, Vista or 7).

Does a software exist, or would one of the mentioned software do it?

I'll just warn you now that there is no "legal" option, but yes it can be done. NOt sure about emulation, but the OSX86 project boots it on a PC.

Search for a guide on using the iATKOS v1.0.iso.zip image (It's incredibly easy, I just don't want to be liable for anything )

ive emulated in VMWare. its a pain to work with, and slower in the emulation, but you get the idea...

Not sure about the emulation bit, but I've run OSX on an Intel based PC.

I used iDeneb, hardware recommended from the above links and alot of my spare time.....

Is it worth it??? Yes, as a project but not as an everyday workable solution - one wrong update from Apple and it won't boot.

Was fun though
