Really? I seem to have found a bootable OSX 10.4.4 install DVD that was released maybe five days ago...with the patches and scripts built in. That's the point of the picture.
 
I think the one I saw was an older version of Tiger. Does it boot right off the bat on any machine? I thought the PC dev kits needed specific hardware and a bit of modifying to work.

Oh, and by the way, isn't this topic highly illegal? Apple has been known to like to take legal action against people and companies.

It booted on my desktop but not my laptop (video chipset not compatible). It ran okay, but sort of in a compatibility mode. There's no hardware acceleration for video and it didn't detect my NIC. I played with it for a couple of days and then installed Ubuntu on that partition.
 
Same here, I ran it on my Centrino laptop and it worked fine... but totally buggy and slow.

I'm waiting for them to drop the prices on the G4 Powerbook to get me one.
