Dear all,

does anyone know the cheapest solution
(which works, more or less)
for running Windows on a powerbook G4?

- MacOS + VirtualPC
- DebianPPC + MOL + VirtualPC
- DebianPPC + Bochs + Windows
- or ....

Does it exist a (sort of) Wine for
PPC?

Thanks a lot, Linda

The easiest and quickest way to go is to use Virtual PC for MacOS. My understanding is that it may be somewhat difficult to get Bochs to allow both OS's share Network and Cd-rom resources.
