As recently as last year a former employer of mine was looking into
it, but the issue turned out to be one of licensing. Apple didn't
license OS X for running on any hardware except their own, so while
there were some ways to make it technically possible it was not
_legally_ possible. This also seems to be reflected in VMware's
knowledge base now...
