If you want to run OSX in a VM then you will, according to the licensing, need to use the server edition of OSX.

Surely that's not true for non-Apple hardware though? If you could do that someone could create a thin hypervisor and bingo - instant legal hackintosh running OSX server.

OSX Server = Apple Hardware & VMable OSX. According to the OSX licence. So yes, to run OSX you require Apple hardware according to the license.
