Even on the original hardware you have enough bugs to live with and to drive the devs at Apple crazy. That's the prize for _every_ desktop system out there. Apart from that and the fact it's illegal: the guys arround the hackintosh project did a good job in even providing drivers etc. pp. for addon hardware not known to plain MacOS X. So there is a big difference between PR from Cupertino and reality. And if I have a look at some ancient Next machine at the institute I see something real great - even today, something I miss nowadays if I power on the Mac at work. But well for most desktop users - I have to confess - it sucks less.
