Ok, this may seem like an ignorant question. I'm not very educated on the ways of the Apple.

Right now, I have a computer that I built myself. Asus mobo, Intel cpu....no Apple products whatsoever. I have windows xp installed right now.

If I were to buy a new harddrive....fresh, clean, empty....would I be able to install a Mac OS onto it? Or does the computer itself have to be made with all Apple hardware??

Thanks all, and sorry again if it's a stupid question.
