I sure like no non sense mac OS X - and hence here in comes the query.

Has anybody been able to configure mac os x on their laptop and use it reliably without hiccups - I am looking at possibility of this being done.
And wanted to check here - if already somebody done that.

couple of things. Not all mobo and processor combination be fully supported with mac OS X - so which laptop ?
I assume that new windows 8 laptops will be more compatible and hence easier to install to. (no/different/optional BIOS)
I want to be able to do this legally also. so i am ok to buy the mac os x license, but need to check terma - if it can be installed on any other hardware..

I have yet not started researching here. But if somebody already did let me know.
