But the really interesting thing is that sun released the 3.1 beta of vitrualbox and it is now capable of EFI emulation (Or at least sun claims so). So, yes. It's possible to run OS X in a VM ps. be careful to follow the licence of OS X. -- Real programmers don't document.

Hi Juan and welcome to the FreeBSD community. You might try VirtualBox, which is similar to VMWare Workstation but free and part of the ports tree. There's probably a package for it - try: pkg_add -r virtualbox However, you may struggle to install OS/X - Apple have some reasonable technical restrictions in place, and a licensing restriction also that prevents use on non Apple hardware.
