What are the limitations in terms of hardware? Did you select the hardware with the intention of doing a Hackintosh?
Yes. There is a site run that provides all the tools and also has a listing of tested builds for different uses.

I bought from the list and I am dead serious when I say that it took me 90 minutes. Granted I had the boot disk and all that ready to go.

I still have tidy things up and put the case together, but everything else was pretty much as easy as installing OSX and running a post install app with all the fixes.

Here's another tested build someone did for $250, if you want to give it a shot for yourself on the cheap. It was a fun way to spend the afternoon. My kids had fun watching and asking questions.
