while you can develop and use some components of GNOME on OS X, you
won't be able to run GNOME as a single unified user experience.

if you have OS X you can, though, use VirtualBox (or Parallels, if you
have a license for that) to run a virtual machine with Linux on,
though, without necessarily installing Linux on your Mac. the latest
VirtualBox is capable of running GNOME 3.
