I don't go into this board often, but, um...here's my question.
Well...I've been looking at a lot of Mac programs that aren't available for Windows, and I really think I'd like to use them. Thing is, I have a Windows, and there is a very low chance that I will get a Mac anytime soon. I know what bootcamping is (running Windows on a Mac), but is there some way to reverse bootcamp, that is, run Mac on a Windows? Or do something like Ubuntu? Just curious...

A very silly tech question

Well there are several ways to go about this Carth.
You could create a Hackintosh but that is rather a advance project.
You could use VMWare the are plenty of guides on the net to learn how to get OS/X running on it.
There are also numerous Mac OS emulators out there you can find those with Google.
I'd like to help more but I'm bit short on time, and not that keen on running Mac on a Windows platform, get a Mac best 1000$ your spend on a computer in a long time.

Some people have managed to get OS X running on regular PC's, but it is by no means easy. Apple doesn't make drivers for hardware they don't use, so only compatible components would work. I think there might be software locks, too.
In short, it'd be a pain. Sorry...

Hence, the "Hackintosh"

Oh my god this windows bashing is old. But this isn't the right topic.
I heard that using mac on non-apple pcs is against the EUL.
