So the two questions are, one, will they work under VirtualBox, and, two,
is it legal to run them under VirtualBox, and if it isn't why do Aple sell
full use boxed licenses on the open markey. (If you already have the
hardware other respondents have said you can get upgrades for much less.)
I am interested as I have long wanted to experience the Mac, but I am not
going to shell out a grand or more just to try it.I might be prepared for a
much smaller amount, but for an authorized copy, juts to have a Mac on my
PC. (I know it will not be the full Mac experience when emulated, but will
it work?)
