According to the small print of the Software License Agreement for Mac OS X.
Which is a bit harsh for those-list members trying to use OS X unsupported on Daystars, Umaxs, and PowerComp boxes. Now you're lawbreakers as well as optimists.
Still, the "good" news is that Mac OS 9 is still allowed on clones, so that's nice.

I have a Umax S900 running 10.3.9 and humming along quite nicely. You should also join the supermac list and go through the archives. It is not *illegal* to put OSX on clones. And if you *buy* the software it is licensed. It's just not possible to install unless you use an app like Xpostfacto, a brilliant installer helper, and make a few hardware changes. Panther runs very well, much faster than Jaguar on my machine. Of course I'm not alone... the supermac list had close to 500 active, helpful people on it for the last few years.
