Can I load the Mac OS onto another brand of computer such as Dell, Gateway, ASUS, etc?

Hello! I’m wondering if the Mac operating system is compatible with any other of the brands of computers, Dell, Gateway, Asu, etc? If so which ones?

Thanks, Dave

No. macOS only runs on Apple hardware. Apple does not license macOs to be installed on any other hardware but its own.

No. That violates the Apple software license. macOS can only be installed on Apple hardware. Except for this limited informtion, we are forbidden from discussing hacking on these forums.
