Thank you Scott.  I'm trying to pick up a Core i3 HP laptop that is 
in new condition on the cheap.  I've purchased a copy of Mac OSX 10.6
sealed for under $30.  The laptop has Windows 8 on it, but if it 
comes with install media I can just take that off I think.  I want 
the laptop to boot to MacOSX even if I have to run MacOSX under Linux.
I'm having a hard time figuring out what to download and from where to
put Mac OSX on this computer.  Is there an X-Windowsless small footprint
Linux that has vmware on it to run MacOSX in?  Is it possible to hack
a PC so that Mac OSX is the host operating system?
