I assume this will work, but I thought I would ask to see if anyone has tried this and has had it fail. I was wondering if you can run these dev kits if you run Mac OS on a virtual machine.

Do some searches. I've never tried them myself though. A hackintosh (illegal) is also possible - it's essentially dual-booting Mac OS onto a normal PC. It can also be fairly difficult. Thirdly, there is the possibility of using a Virtual Machine within Windows. It's clean and easy, but I think it's also illegal. And finally, get yourself a Mac. Mac mini is cheapest.

I have never programmed in Objective C before, but have had experience with the old programming language of Pascal, Fortran and stuff. Where can I find info to help me step-by-step to program for the iphone. Also, do I need a mac or can I use the PC to program? Any books you can recommend? Please let me know.. Thanks..

For developing on a Windows environment there is Appcelerator Titanium, PhoneGap or the Adobe Packager(CS5 and AIR), which works really great. There is also a nice guide pointing to some useful resources on <a href="http://ipadappsplus.com/ipad-apps/how-to-create-ipad-apps/" rel="nofollow">ipad app development</a>, that might come in handy..

You have to use a Mac which is far more expensive then a windows based PC. Also there is a 99$ fee if I want to test an app on real phone.

I presume it would be the same general process as marketing and promoting a web app or website/blog, but I'm sure there are a few subtle, nuanced differences. @Eric Rowell: I’d love to know some tips to this as well.

You can be an Apple developer to do your own apps for free, however, to sell them in the app store or put them on an actual iPhone, you then need to pay $99. The dev programs are free. @Jon that is incorrect.
