Leopard on a "Normal" Pc ?

Absolutely not in any "legal" way.

If you really do want to; try using a Core2 CPU, closer to the Apple's CPU, and consider running it in a virtual machine.

From the Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard EULA, Section 2A: "This License allows you to install, use and run one (1) copy of the Apple Software on a single Apple-labeled computer at a time."

[that does not mean hand labeling your Dell PC with an Apple sticker :-D]

It's the screen people blindingly press

(there should also be a printed version in the box, however not owning one I wouldn't be able to tell you for sure)

(or read it here; online)

And you would still be running it against the EULA.

The version you install on what-ever-but apple hardware involves tinkering with boot code/drivers etc, which is an infringement of copyright laws. OSX checks for specific apple ROM code, if none is present it won't work. No regular PC, physical or virtual has this code.

Yes, I CAN install Vista on several machines and hack it so it works. Yes, I CAN install OSX on a xxx branded PC and use it.

It's just not legal, that's all I said, no matter what way you try to turn it.

Point 2 was, making OSX think it's running on MAC hardware IS copyright infringement.

You should delve a little deeper in your legal system, if a EULA was "just a piece of paper" as everyone seems to think it is we would all be running OSX (legally)
