How about this
Say I install it on an apple but put the hard drive in my computer. It was legally installed on an apple and after that the HD ran in my non apple machine. Oh! Who am I trying to Kidd? I will make the Mac OS work on my PC and let the apple cop's find me LOL! "NOT" I could really give a damn about the Mac OS or really apple at all or even Microsoft. Linux is the future and these old timers fighting over legal issues just makes me fart in rage. Who cares? If I pay for something it is mine to do with as I damn well please. every one will argue this point with me but I don't care. I don't buy their crap because of all this hogwash over licenses. It?s easier to just get Linux for Free and install it where I want when I want. No muss No fuss No bother. I probably will dual boot with Mac OS and send them a picture. What are they going to do about it? I will install Mac OS on a Mac machine and put the HD in my PC. Document it and send them all pictures as I do it. What are they going to do? Really! NOTHING! That is what! In fact I have already run Mac OS on my PC. Big Whop! It sucks as bad as Microsoft. I can run twice as many software titles in Microsoft and really there is even more software available for Linux as compared to Mac OS. So exactly what would the advantage be?
