Hello,
If you want to get an good idea of what is involved, look at Darwin
9 (Leopard) vs Darwin 10 (Snow Leopard). That will give you an idea
of what is under the hood of each.
To an extent.
Darwin does not include the Core technologies which are a MAJOR part
of Snow Leopard: Core Video, Core Graphics, etc.
These were heavily re-written between 10.5 and 10.6, in fact, I
suspect this was where almost all of the work was done.
Seriously if you're too poor to buy a new mac there are loads of sites
out there that'll help you get 10.6 running on a fairly wide
assortment of non-Apple standard intel-based gear.
Apple isn't going to come hunt you down for making your own
Hackintosh, unless you go into business selling them, like Psystar
tried to do.
Web sites like OSX86 and Google groups like Hackintosh are both good
sources of info and help....
