Re: [WSG] Safari on x86

You'd be better off buying a cheap mac to test on.  The PearPC thing is 
full of bugs and slower than a dead turtle (talk about slow!).  From 
what I've seen, it 1/500th the speed of your current processor.

Hi all..
I hope this is not too off topic..
But I came across a project on SourceForge called PearPC (URL:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/pearpc/ ) which seems to allow MacOS 
to run
on x86 (and posix)..

For some time I been wondering how I can get Safari (or any other Mac
browser) to work on a x86.. I'd really like to hear from anyone who 
has been
able to get it to work.. Or at least thinking of trying...

If you wish to reply, feel free to reply off-list to my address...
Thanks!

That's what we did.

We have one little lonely eMac in our office for browser testing and
other Mac related development projects. It was a necessary upgrade since
the old Power PC 7200/120 just couldn't cope anymore.
