Anyone know if you can install Snow Leopard on VMWare? I want to develop iphone games on my PC.

From a technical standpoint it is possible, and in my experience it works, albeit very poorly.

However, the Mac OS X EULA, last time I checked, explicitly forbids installing it inside a virtual machine. Therefore you do so at your own legal risk, and I really wouldn't recommend selling a game produced in this fashion.

* Note that Mac OS X Server is licensed differently, and that can be installed in a VM. OS X Server is not designed for developing iPhone applications, however.

I know this was true before 10.6 but IIRC this restriction was removed for 10.6?
Anyway wasn't the wording which restricted it, something like [allowed if it has an apple logo on the machine] ?

The restriction is still in effect. What Apple did relax was the ability to virtualise Mac OS X Server on Apple-branded hardware.

Legal wrangling over the wording is somewhat irrelevant - the only real purpose it serves is to assuage your own (guilty) conscience. If you are comfortable breaking Apple's EULA, that is between you, your conscience, and Apple's legal division.
