The guy indicated he was running a Compiz install configured to look
like OS X. I am not concerned with that. although some have tottally
missed that part of the video.

My concern is that threads about running OS X on non PC hardware
because of fear of Apple lawyers have been shut down. This PPC chip
thread has turned into a discussion of running OS X on non-Apple
hardware. To be consistent in applying the rules means
that the " maybe because running OS X on a PS3 is just so
