The source for Apple's kernel and userland is all BSD/APSL/Apache and even GPLv2, any conditions for running binary versions in emulators or on "Hackintosh" systems is likely in the EULA.. and EULAs are not legal everywhere anyway.
The kernel is open source and GPL, however the "aqua desktop" and software bundles (Mail, Safari, etc) is not.
Of course, I was only referring to the source code they made available.. I wasn't suggesting that the entire operating system was open source. It's not.
IANAL about all the EULA stuff, certainly it's clear Apple does not want people running the binary distribution of Mac OS on unsupported computers. But It's certainly possible technically, and in some places, even legally.
Keeping with the general ramblings direction, take this guilty little lamb.
