Mine that I am typing on right now can be updated through the app store. Sound breaks but that is a two minute fix.

Z68MA-D2H-B3 2500K OD'ed to 4.5GHZ 650TI Boost 2Gig

It is actually easier to install OS X on this then it is Windows.

Major updates 10.8 -> 10.9 do require booting from a USB stick made with Unibeast. But 10.9 -> 10.9.1 works just fine.

This. I've been lurking on the hackintosh forums[1] and it really isn't very hard. I'm about to jump into the hack world. The decision process was pretty difficult, but I think I've crossed all the t's and dotted all the i's. I recorded the hardest decisions in my blog[2]. Since I needed RAID 5, it took a while to feel comfortable, but now I do and I'm about to purchase the hardware.
