FWIW, I installed FlyAKiteOSX on my U810 and other lappies in the past....works great for me..looks just like OS X but it's not... ;)

Check it out:

FWI also W, I've had some success with 10.4 on a FS.

I say "some" and not "full" because there were problems, and I have not had time to fully investigate/resolve them.

It seems to load and run fine, under Windows / VMware; though is slow and hasn't a lot of memory.

It's possible to run it natively, but needs certain flags, and probably a fair amount of work
(also, only *some* distributions will run... many/most will not)

If you want OSX to play with, VMware under linux (or windows) would probably be fine.
If you want it for serious work, it's possible.... but be prepared for some effort.
