A neighbour installed SnowywindOSX build by Dalton on his wind and it looks VERY promising. I'm still hesitant, because on insanelymac.com some posters report to have problems with their install, but maybe it's only a matter of not following the instructions - I don't know.
On a side note: Rebel EFI has been released today. As far as I understand it allows to install Mac OSX on PCs and the free version allows two hours of use. Sounds a lot like the EFI-x to me and I suppose both use code made by the OX86 community. Anyways, Apple OS will be found on more and more computers...
Edit:
And there is more: Empire EFI looks like fun. It looks like the REAL thing.
And there is insanelywind.com with a forum up and running now. The MSI Wind thread on insanelymac.com was closed due to board rules violations: too many people posted or asked for links to that "mysterious" torrent (snowywindosx) offering a 10.6 install iso. Google might help there as well.. ¶ 4:40 PM 0 comments

snowywindosx
After a LONG time another blog entry. The reason: OS X can be used on the MSI Wind U100 and there will soon be a new release of 10.6 and possibly 10.6.1.
I followed two fora (forum = singular, fora = plural, it's latin...) where Dalton and Mars (their user names) were announcing their releases. Well and the moment the release came closer the first forum (forums.msiwind.net) refused to load. A server problem so it seems. Two days later more and more users from msiwind.net appeared on www.insanelymac.com and Dalton prepared his release. Yesterday it was as close as can get and what happened? insanelymac.com disappeared. If i was paranoid I'd say apple forced them to pull the plug. But seriously spoken the MSI Wind OS X users are so unimportant that a serious company like Apple simply could not care less, I think. And I even think Apple should do the opposite: If their system works more or less on the cheap MSI Wind there are for sure users that get addicted to OS X - it looks like a great system and there will be new customers for Apple.
I'm curious how this will develop and might even go ahead and try OS X on my own MSI wind...

Edit2: It very much looks like the torrent was released. Google might help to find SnowyWindOSX.zip by searching for SnowyWindOSX.zip torrent. Good luck!

Edit4: 10.6.2 seems to ask for some further user input to run - insanelywind.com will have answers.
