Is it possible to install MAC operating system on a Compaq laptoP?
I know it's not, but I'd still like to know. If not, then I have to buy an Apple Laptop.

No never, Apple had patented the MAC OS so it would only run on its platform, this means there is no boxes saying MAC OS in big box stores. But you can run XP through BootCamp on a MAC.

It is not possible. The Mac OS requires specialized hardware and looks for a particular BIOS to run. Another option is to run Mac OS X on top of VMWare. See the link below for more information. Good luck!

The other people answering you are incorrect. It IS possible, but it is not preferable to using an Apple product. have a look at www.macosx86.com

I know on Cnet Tom Merrit put OS X (MAC OS) on an IBM Thinkpad but you better know what you are doing because Apple doesn't make it easy

It is possible to install osx86 on your laptop but it is pretty difficult. There are some tutorials online. You also need to have a certain type of processor (SSE3? or something). Give it a try
