Yes you can. But if you dont know anything about computers then it might be hard. Hear is a link. You can google this stuff you know. http://www.windowsdevcenter.com/pub/a/windows/2005/01/18/PearPC.html

No. Apple designed Mac OS to run only on their hardware. They do use Intel CPUs, but they manufacture their own motherboards, which are different from those found in standard PCs. Each Apple motherboard has a security chip on it. If the OS doesn't find that chip, it won't install or run. The only way around this is to install an illegally cracked version of the OS. If you manage to do this, the next problem is that Apple only provides drivers for their own hardware. You'll need to write drivers for your hardware.
