While it's not legal, I hear it's also not hard.  A friend of a friend
bought a new iMac, imaged it onto an IBM laptop, applied a patch, and it

I'm disappointed in Apple.  They could have done better if they wanted
to...  They could have use the intel processors and completely reworked
the architecture and use OpenFirmware...
