PearPC has been around for quite some time. There's speculation that CherryOS has packaged up parts of PearPC into a nice GUI, but either way, CherryOS is not unique. CherryOS may be "new" news, however, emulating MacOS X on PC hardware is pretty old news.

They did. They alledgedly had it running on intel hardware internally , at least initially. NestStep supported intel, Rhapsody certainly had an intel port, and Darwin will run on intel hardware too.. However, if Apple released it, they'd loose all support from M$. No more M$ office etc. No more M$ backhanders. M$ would nail them to the floor. You only have to look at what happened to OS/2 and BeOS to realise that.
