You haven't seen this yet? It was released a while ago, and works, but is so incredibly slow that it is pretty much unusable except for people who just want to play around in the finder and tell other people that their Dell can run OS X.
Doesn't it take something like six hours just to boot OSX with that emulator?
I'd say that in your case spelling would be more healthy than skepticism.
Well at the very least the posted comments a little bit healthier than what I have been observing from the lounge posts.

I am a Mac person but like to keeep a perspective on other possibilities . Approximately 6 months ago I read (at Slashdot)about a Hardware company that was building linux/unix boxes. Part of the story revealed it was possible to emulate Os x to them.(I will in the next few days try to find the company in my bookmarks although somebody here may know the company I'm referring to ). The boxes were being built with power pc architecture and seemed to be utilizing chips that were one generation shy of (at the time) current processors. It was as if they had cottoned on to a way of making the old new again. These boxes or systems seemed to be aimed at open systems nerds or programmers and the like who were already familiar with linux/unix, it just stands to reason that someone somewhere will have a go at the Mac thing if only to make the product more consummable by a larger proportion of society, especially when we can visual observe marketing strategies.
