I've never built a computer and I'm not exactly concerned about the
legal stuff since I would be doing this for personal use.  But is it as
simple as just copying the rom to a flash-rom, pasting it into a
motherboard+ processor + ram + video card and  Viola!?  I'm really
interested in trying to build a bunch of thin client mac NCs (so add
fast ethernet).
