I'm trying to get Risen into the iBookstore, too (supposedly Smashwords will be doing that, but I'm still waiting for the B&N and Kobobooks entries) and the cost of admission is killer. I'm still not sure it's worth buying a separate ISBN for it, then I have to find a friend with a new-enough Mac, and I'm still not sure I'll be able to pass the formatting test--I hear horror stories about that.
It's not really that I can't put OS X onto the PC, just that when I first bought the refurbished unit, I went with a 1TB SATA main drive and dedicated *all* of it to my C: (main) and D: (restore) partitions. And I've been too cheap to buy a 1TB external drive in order to offload all the images, documents and other data... Now that I've done so, I have created a 24GB partition, but it's such a *major* step to put a second OS directly onto it's own partition that I've been putting it off.

Oh well... Guess I can't put it off any longer. (Well, *maybe*, if I buy an 80GB EIDE HD and install it I can make *that* my OS X drive! )
