The answer of course is yes. The Mac platform is the only one where you can run all operating systems at the same time. Why one would wish to use Windoze remains one of life’s little mysteries.

Yes, it is possible to run OS X on PC.
There are a few clips on youtubeof such instances.

Cormac - Ignoring the licensing, isn’t it possible technically?

There is a licensing issue at the moment between MS and Apple which ‘prevents’ Macs being installed on PCs.

Apple are certainly pushing the dual functionality of Macs. Boot Camp is be a default feature of Leopard and according to Jobs’ Keynote speech, you can boot straight from Leopard into XP in approx 5 seconds. Handy out!

And of course Parallels is the sweet-heart of dual functionality between the two systems.

Have you tried Ubuntu on a Mac Ken? I haven’t myself but curious, I’ve read reports that Win XP runs faster on a Mac than a PC - was I dreaming?

I’m sorry but Ubuntu on an old Dell Inspiron is the future ;o)

As far as I know you can run OSX on a PC, but you need to do some hacking to get it working.

I’m sure one of the more technical types would be able to give more detail
