Why not install OSX on an intel machine made by Dell or HP?

You can hack it. Not for the faint of heart though.
But why would you want to?
Part of the problem that MSFT have is the OS needs to operate on an almost infinite combination of components. Windows would be much more stable if the hardware were controlled.
Hardware also becomes obsolete. Everyone replaces it sooner or later.
If a consumer wants to switch to OS X they can just buy a Mac. If they don't like OS X they can always install Windows on it and they'll still have a quality piece of hardware.
