I have been planning on getting a real mac, but being in highschool... and paying for gas and stuff really takes a toll on my cash.

I have had access to a few sse3 computers and real macs... up until now. They were either one of my siblings computers or being barrowed.

Here is my thought... Would it be possible to install darwin 8 on an SSE1 cpu with an SSE2 emulator built in its kernel?
Edit: It is possible to install darwin 8.0.1 on an xbox (no sse2) so i dont see why I can't install it on a Athlon XP http://www.xbox-linux.org/wiki/Darwin

Once I have that can just install OSX with the sse3 emulator in it's kernel.

I know I don't have the skills to pull of such a task and I also know the speed loss... but I think that it would sure beat emulating OSX86 under QEMU.
