I never believed that

I knew more people would switch to Apple than linux. I've stated it here several times. Now for the link, I despise slashdot but read it anyway. If they made a Mac OS X for x86 I'd be all over it.

Now I know they use specific hardware vendors for their machines and have control of that hardware, but whats to stop a generic hardware manufacturer from creating some OS X drivers and selling the product? People could buy those, make their own x86 machine, then load OS X. You wouldn't have official support from Apple, but if everything worked you wouldn't need it. Would this be a plausible idea?
