What's the host machine? I was under the impression that OSX would only run on apple hardware in a vm – is that no longer the case?

The host is a white box Haswell system so this is not Apple hardware. Sierra _can_ be virtualized on non-Apple PC but you'll need to use a bootloader that supports it and build a customized .iso[1] from the install medium downloaded from AppStore. I believe the same goes for Yosemite and El Capitan.
So no, it is no longer the case. It is still prohibited by the EULA though.
