Other than I believe there is a clause in the EULA for Mac OS X that 
requires it to be ran on 'genuine Apple hardware'... which is why you 
never see Mac OS X *guests* on any virtualization software like 
Virtualbox or VMware.  Linux, yes.  Windows, yes.  OS X, no.

I realize most people don't believe EULAs to be worth a darn, but I 
don't think its a good idea to recommend such practices for someone's kid.

YMMV.
