Can't install Mac OS X Snow Leopard in VMWare
I really want to start developing apps for the iPhone, but I don't have a mac. So I bought the mac OS X now leopard install disk and was going to install it in VMWare Workstation using [this guide][1]. But when I get to step 5, it starts putting a bunch of commands and the last says "Disabling CPU". When it does that VMWare puts an error saying the CPU has been shut down by the guest operating system and powers it down. So it won't let me install it.

Then I got mad and downloaded a pre-installed vmware image of leopard, which runs perfectly, but the version is too low for even the 3.0 SDK. So I go to update the os, it downloads all of the files, but when it starts to apply the update the mac os says there is a problem and needs to restart, and vmware pops up the same message saying the cpu has been disabled.

So what on earth do I have to do? I am completely unable to find a pre-installed snow leopard vmware image, and I am unable to install it myself. I have been trying to get this to work for the last 3 days, so please help me.
