Mac OS on cloud?

Hi,
I need to use iPhone SDK for a Mobile Application Development course module that I am having this semester. Having both Android and iPhone. So I need to be able to use the iPhone SDK for learning purposes. Unfortunately it is only available for Max OS.
None of my computers support virtualization so I cannot run Mac OS X on vmware. Without hardware virtualization it is slow to the point that the semester will be over when I get to the point of compiling something after finishing the coding.

I was thinking if I could find a service, providing the ability to stream a Mac OS desktop on to my machine like a remote desktop connection. I could not find any for the moment.

I am writing after trying almost everything. I cannot install anything more than OS X 10.6.3 on my laptop and even that messes up my HDD partition table.
I wonder how does that iPhone App store have so many apps with a so little developer base. :?

So any idea, anyone about the Mac OS X remote connectivity service?.
Thanks.

Found this aqua connect thing. However, it is going to cost and I won't possible be able to install anything.

Not sure if they provide servers of their own or if this is just a server application. The description on the web page is quite confusing. Bad design :P

Hello Herath... After a long time dude! Nice to see you back in EC.

With regard to your question... One of my friends wanted the same and what he did was, install VirtualBox (no matter you have hardware level virtualisation or not) and then install Mac OS on it. It worked simply fantastic.

I'm not sure whether they have removed Mac OS support now, so you need to have a look.

This the only way you can do that. Make sure download the xcode 4 , now the latest version xcode 5 wont support in this version of mac
