Actually, I used to run Windows under MacOS 10 years ago. This isn't anything new. There actually is software to run old versions of MacOS under Linux x86, but you need a Mac ROM image to get it working. Of course if your running Linux on your PPC machine you can boot into MacOS using MOL. Bochs might also work for running Windows/DOS on a PPC machine since it is an x86 emulator, but you would have to look into that. Of course you could always setup a serperate system and use it over the network. I used to play poker on a windows box over VNC from my Linux machine, and right now I'm using Evolution on my Linux box running over ssh in X11 on a MacOS X box :-). Jesse
