Hi Orin,

Yeah, but I guess as long as it is on their own hardware Apple doesn't care. They just get piffy with people who have non-apple hardware attempting to virtualize Mac OS along side Linux or Windows. As long as people pay for the software why should they care if it is on a Toshiba, Del, Compaq, etc? I suppose its all a part of their marketing strategy. If you want the software then they require you run it exclusively on their hardware and only their hardware.

That said, there are ways to get around it if someone doesn't mind violating a few rules. I've seen some Youtube videos where people have installed VMware Player and got Mac OS to work on their desktop or laptop. Unfortunately it requires an Intel processor to work successfully and half my machines use AMD processors so virtualizing Mac OS on this laptop wouldn't work at all.

Hmm. Yet they add machine support to their VmWare Fusion so you can virtualize 
Mac on another Mac. How convenient…
