Not possible.
Despite the fact that the latest Macs are based on Intel CPUs, the mainboard and BIOS are still too different to allow that kind of interoperability.

It is very possible to run the latest mac os on your pc ONLY if your pc support SSE3, you can download a program called EVEREST if you are unsure if your computer support that. Anyway i am running it rite now but it doesnt work on all pc's even if you do have sse3 but you can give it a try. Now there is no copyright or whatever those other people were saying my mac os run flawless on my pc. to do this you must install the hacked version of mac os x its called "Jas mac os x intel/amd" you can download it off the internet like i did and just follow directions with the installation process it works like a charm im loving my Mac!!! Cheers

You can't, not really. While they are using Intel-based motherboards now, Apple motherboards are different from non-Apple ones. They lack a BIOS and also have a special security chip. There are some emulators developed to allow you to run Mac OS on non-Apple hardware, but since they are illegal they are quickly shut down by Apple. As a result they are primitive and buggy at best. You might be able to deal with it if you are a programmer who is good at assembler and enjoys writing your own device drivers for fun, but otherwise the experience will be a nightmare.
If you want the Mac OS, you have to buy a Mac. As one poster above said, the Mac Mini starts at $600.00, and there are used Macs available on ebay at reasonable prices.

You just cant run a MAC system on PC. Simple as it is.
IF you want to use MAC OS, then you will have to buy a MAC.
Alternatively, you can try installing LINUX or any other flavor of UNIX which is available for PC to enjoy a similar experience.
But OS X is just for MAC

It's possible, but it requires breaking Apple's copyright and in the end you're left with a system that doesn't really work correctly. Don't bother. If you really want to run Mac OS a new Mac Mini starts at $599.
