I used this site quite a bit when building a hackintosh for my nephew http://www.tonymacx86.com/home.php

Ideally you will want an Intel processor and the right graphics card or things start getting really complicated

Thanks, is it not a case of installing vmware and then installing os on that.

I don't know about vmware, if this would apply.

A few people I know of who have (successfully) installed macos on a PC System (none mac hardware) have said not all pc hardware is mac compliant, so it turns into a bit of a nightmare with things not being recognised.

mac os has very limited driver support natively and whilst theres a lot of resources for get for getting non standard equipment to work when I was playing around I found it was a lot easier to go with known compatible components.
The site I linked is suited to building a machine that can boot from hard drive though there may be better resources that help with booting virtually don't have any real experience in that area though.
