Getting Mac OS X up and running on a computer without an Apple label has always been a bit of a hassle. You needed customised Mac OS X disks, updates would ruin all your hard work, and there was lots of fiddling with EFI and the likes. Ever since the release of boot-132, this is no longer the case.

No, he's right. Apple actively prevents you from installing on a regular PC, and Boot123 circumvents that protection. It's a clear-cut DMCA violation. Don't get me wrong, I write this with a motherboard on its way that will allow me to run vanilla OSX86, but I don't pretend that it won't be illegal.
