Psystar waves the red flag in front of Apple
BobA:
Looks like Psystar is not ready to lie down yet. Newest release lets everyone hack a mac on intel based PCs. Your results may vary but it looks like the hackintosh is going to become more popular.

Why would anyone want to take an OS that isn't designed for a PC and make it work? This defies the whole reason Macs have less problems... proprietary hardware. If people would learn how to properly operate, secure, and maintain a computer they would not need to attempt to bastardize a Windows machine with Apple software.

Because it has less problems than on real Apple hardware, and you can add 3 normal hard drives (very reasonable thing to ask with todays 12 Mpixel cameras with video options) without needing to buy a MacPro directly.
And Macs are too visible in the office. I don't like that. They look like fun, I want them to look serious.

The only difference between a modern Mac and a "PC" is OS X.

I guess you could say that Macs are really expensive PCs designed by Apple. Only thing that makes it an Apple is the logo.
