Use Leo4All, this will allow you to install Leopard onto your PC. More information, as well as where to download, can be found here:

I've done this before, and although not all of my hardware was supported,  the install worked flawlessly.

Answer 3

I'm assuming that you want to run OS X as a virtual machine. In that case your RAM may be a bit light, seeing that you will need RAM for the Host OS as well as what you reserve for the Virtual machine.

I am running VirtualBox on OpenSuse 10.3. I have 1.5 Gb so I allocate 512 to the guest OS and leave the rest for the Host. Runs great

Answer 4

Its illegal to run Mac on a PC, but not the other way around. Hmm.

Answer 5

You can't run OS X on any PC, at least without some significant hardware tweaking (the resulting PC being referred to as a Hackintosh!) ....and hardware tweaking at that level isn't going to be feasible with a laptop.

The word 'distro' is usually used to describe Linux distributions. There are no OS X distributions because OS X isn't freely 'distributed', it's purchased.
