That's a shame!
Corona seems like an ideal solution for me, but I have a PC with OSX. I just tried running Corona but I can't get past the login screen "Could not verify account information".

Is there an action plan to make Corona work on 'Hackintosh'?

Unfortunately because there are so few users out there with it and so many possible failure scenarios, it is unlikely that it will be supported. But it would be good to know how many users out there are interested in a solution.

Just curious to know why the sim would require any specific code changes to make it work on non-Apple hardware when Snow Leopard and all the Mac Apps work just fine on hackinstosh?

I'm not purely hackinstosh user. I do have Apple hardware. I also have licensed retail copy of Snow Leopard on Thinkpad running at 1920x1200 resolution at 15.4" which I love it and primarily use for development.

I'am an apple user with PC hardware. I work with Linux, Win and Mac and builds applications for all this hardwars. I now need to work with Corona but I can't install it in my hardware.
The "Could not verify account information." message appears in the screen.
How can I do to install it under me responsability?

Thanks in advance.

Just so you know - not really a hackintosh but still - Corona works great on VMWare 7 + Retail version of Snow Leopard + VMWare tools (Windows XP_64 host). Although on some occasions it hangs when the simulator is running.
