    Nowhere. You'll have to purchase it.

    And I hope you're not referring to the illegal stuff. ;)

    If you want a free OS, i recommend Ubuntu. Some theming makes it just as good as OSX.

    Ahh, a hackintosh. Then you are looking for the illegal stuff.

    I believe the Mac OS should only be installed in a Macintosh computer, as stated in the EULA.

    Here's a suggestion:
    OS X costs 6-7K depending on the store you're buying from.
    A used iBook is 15-20K depending on the specs and aesthetics.
    For at least 8K more, you get a free laptop with your OS X.
    Or a nice laptop with free OS X worth 7K.
    Quite a deal isn't it?!

    Plus, you'll be virus free (this issue is subjective I know, but generally speaking) compared to Windows machines! :cool:
