How many of those Hackintoshes are running legal copies of Leopard (or Snow Leopard, even) to begin with. Methinks not many at all.

I think so too. A lot of instructions on how to get Mac OS X on your PC start with:

First download the iPC or iDeneb Mac OS X distros from the torrent site of you choice.

Actually this is pretty sensible, because otherwise you have to jump through hoops to patch the Mac OS X install DVD.

I don't find it wrong to do so, if it's just curiosity driving you. Half your hardware won't work anyway.
