Ok, I am not a lawyer here, but this is the words from the ELUA

Quote:
I. Other Use Restrictions. The grants set forth in this License do not permit you to, and you agree not to, install, use or run the Apple Software on any non-Apple-branded computer, or to enable others to do so.
So if you live in a country where the EULA is considered a binding legal contract (its not clear to me if that is true in USA or not) then it seems to me its clearly illegal.

However, to the best of my knowledge Apple has not enforced it. The hackintosh community is fairly large, and very public about what they do. If Apple wanted to enforce it, the field is ripe with targets.
