01) You can't install Mac OS X in your PC. You can install it Only in a Machintosh.

02) This OS is not FREE. For more info goto http://www.apple.com/macosx/

03) You can use the USB based Wireless Internet, Provided it supports Mac Machines.

04) You can use and run Java programs. Just check http://www.java.com/

Hope this helps you. ;)

I mean to say legally it is not possible unless you have a mac.

But it is possible to install Mac OS X in Intel machines. (x86) {illegal}

would i be able to use usb based wireless internet?

You can install Micro$oft's Virtual PC in MAC and use all Windows Hardwares in MAC OS.
