    Default Fully running Leopard on Vista 64bit PC

    I have Leopard running on VMWare Workstation 6.5 inside my Vista 64 bit PC (Intel Duel Core E6600) - and it runs great. Some of the team have the iPhone SDK and iPod Touch development system running too - all on a Windows Box!

    Yes it is but its not the official SDK. From what I can remember, it uses Mac0SX libraries. You wouldn't be able to publish your work in appstore if you use that one but you can alway use cydia or installer for distribution. Hope this helps

    I've got the iPhone SDK running flawlessly in VMWare Player based on this image Mac OS X 10.5.5 VMware Virtual Machine Image

    Seems like a lot less work than building the toolchain...

    He's taken that torrent down, is that particular VM Image available anywhere else?
