Why don't you just get a Macbook, the new models have slightly lower price than previous models.
They are still insanely expensive. If apple would price their producs more reasonably they'd wipe out microsoft within a few years, especially after WIndows 8.
The cheapest mac is $1000, while I could get a high performance laptop (PC) for ~$600-$700. I could get a desktop equivelent or greater in performance than the base Mac pro for 70 to 80% cheaper. I would like to switch to mac, and I bet I know about 6 macs worth of people who would, but the price is a dealbreaker.
I'm considering custom building a nice desktop PC and running Ubuntu Linux. Ubuntu is really a nice OS, although not being able to run some Windows software makes it hard.

If you can buy the OS seperately (not sure if you can). Why wouldn't it be legal?
Crapple only allow their operating systems to be used with their hardware. There's no legal way to use it otherwise.

Get a Macbook and dual boot a Windows OS, been there, done that
This solves your problem and is 100% legal But that also kinda defeats the purpose, because then you're spending a boatload of money just to run Windows.

Anyway, yeah, your best bet is looking on hackintosh.com -- They've got it all.
I'm not sure how virtual OS setups work with Mac, but I have no real interest in the subject for anything other than the iPhone devkit, so meh. :3

Because of Apple's Terms and Conditions.
Yep.
As far as I'm aware, Hackintosh works pretty well. There's also a program called "Fusion" (I think), but I'm not too familiar on what it does... I think it lets you run both operating systems, but again I don't know.

Still much more expensive than a PC.

technically it's illegal to install it on a non-apple-branded PC

Pretty sure it doesn't work like that
