Question

I would think I'm nuts for trying this, But I have a Toshiba U205-S5002 Laptop, 320GB HDDR, 3GB/4GB ready Boost, Intel Centrino Core Duo 1.6GHZ ,256mb video, SSE,SSE2,SSE3, and guess what, I feel like having Windows XP, Win 7, Mac OSX 10.6.2 Snow Leopard. This is the situation, Had win Xp Pro running first, Win 7 came out, so I installed it, then after doing all that thought about it, why not try Mac OSX 10.6.2 Snow Leopard, only problem is, don't know where to start, can anybody show me or tell me or walk me thru it, now win xp and win 7 are runnig already, how can I add Mac OSX 10.6.2 Snow Leopard to this booting scene, would really appreciate any help. Thank You.

Here is a good sample, it's a show off, well done, but it doesn't show you how to do it, and that's is what I'm looking for, remember,
Win XP,Win 7 and Mac OSX 10.6.2 Snow Leopard.

Any luck getting it down on paper so I can try it? Can you add a MAC OS to a PC? Or do you have to use a MAC machine and add Windows?
