Hello,

It is not legal to install Mac OS X as a VM on anything that is not produced by Apple. Check out the license restrictions.

I know there are Vmware images out there, with OS X.

I have seen one running in a workstation once, but as the others said, its not legal.

But it is posible, and that was your question right ?

I was run Apple soft on Vmware workstation and Server, but esxi no chance.

So I think it's impossible right now.

Thank you everybody for discussion.
