If possible, would you consider buying OS X for a non Mac computer?
Title says it all. I am doing a little research for a blog I want to write up on my website about different OS platforms. One thing that I am trying to figure out, is that would it appeal to people to load OS X on their PC, and would they be willing to pay for it?
If so, would you even consider buying Mac hardware, or only run it if they allowed you to buy it and install it on your PC?
What are your thoughts and concerns if this were possible?
This is completely hypothetical and while there are projects out there like OS X x86 I am talking about official pay for software from Apple.
So the standard price for OS X is like $99 to $129 depending on if you can get the upgrade, or $199 for a 5 install license (they call it the family pack), would you be willing to buy it and try it on your PC?
Thoughts and concerns?
Thanks in advance for discussing this.
