Darwin can be built for PPC, you just have to run pure Darwin, you can't use XCode. Second, while your strategy for emulation is a good one it won't work for running OS x 10.6 on PPC processors. (It was the way they got Windows to run on 68030-era hardware..the company that made the emulator (and I cannot remember the name for the life of me) had access to the Windows source code, and were able to cross-compile the libs, so it was more of a WINE-type 'emulation'.) -- Bruce Johnson "Wherever you go, there you are" B.
