How I ran Mac OS X on my Compaq Armada laptop

Well, one day I needed to test if an application compiles on Mac OS X, but I didn't have any working Apple computer nearby, but I had my old installation CD for my broken iBook.
So I decided, for fun, to try to run it on my "star" laptop, an old Compaq Armada M300 bought from ebay for $42, with the following specs:
* 128 MB RAM
* 333 MHz processor (PII)
* 6GB HD

How to do this??

It's very simple, just follow this, a tutorial on how to use PearPC, a PPC architecture emulator.

Below is the movie of Mac OS X running on my laptop:
