Are you sure this is legit?  I click on the first link I see on the 
page and here's what I read (pasted from the page):

IF you want a decent OS for Intel, then lose the apple interface and
darwin. I will run windows first before I will infect my machine with
netinfo, aqua or an OS with fewer applications than OS/2. You want
a stable OS? OS X is not one of them. How about the hidden facts
that 6 out of 10 G4s get returned back to Apple due to overheating?
How about the iBook that I got and it overheats to the point of the
plastic melting down whenever I try to play a DVD? Yes, I have OS X
Jaguar 10.2.2, BIG MISTAKE.

Here's the story. I called Apple Tech Support. Their friendly operator
told me flat out that I was SOL and that I should buy another one if
I wanted to use this amazing OS. Those were his words, and look I
got the proof, I taped the sob.

If you ask me, anything but apple on my machine. I feel infected just
by looking at the OS X logo *PUKE PUKE*

These Mac on x86 guys have been around for awhile and they seem to get 
pretty fanatical about their rants of why they think x86 is so much 
better. What's everybody going to do if Mac runs on x86 and then IBM's 
PPC 970 turns out to be an x86 killer?
