Agreed.

There may be a hand full of "pirated" copies of Leopard floating around, but for the most part, (if anything), there are 'licensing' issues with OS X being run on "Non-Apple" machines. IMO, Apple is only interested in deterring commercial clones ie. Psystar. And finds the work around installations of OS X more of a mild nuisance.

I missed the original Error Message, but is there any Proof that these errors are occurring on Non-Apple products?

You can't buy a copy of Leopard for installation on a new machine. Apple only sells UPGRADE licenses. The only way to get a new OSX license is to buy a new Mac.

I bought Mac OS X 10.5.4 Retail Family Pack just the other week and I did upgrade one MacBook Pro from Tiger with it, but it looks like I can install other machines from scratch if I wish to do so...
