No, I there is no OSX in emulation. PPC emulation at this time is barely running on X86 processors and G3 G4 emulation is right out. Your best bet would be to go to ebay, find a cheap G3 or better Mac, get a copy of OSX and use that. Hope that helps. Mike

Nerd. I checked out connectix.com like you said and I found no such product (I even searched on google for it). As of this time I stand by my answer. No there is no OSX emulation for windows at this time. Gracefully defending myself. Mike
P.S. If you do find such a program, please list the hyperlink to the exact product on this message board.

NOTHING can run OS X on Windoze (unless someone ported MaconLinux when I wasn't looking).
Summary: I am interested in Mac OS X but now I just want to try it and not buy a g4 or something else----- Can anybody tell me if it is possible to install Mac OS X on a pentium 3? Thanks a lot ...
