Your install dvd probably has Universal Binaries for both PowerPC and x86, so PearPC could be a decent solution, although I could be wrong. They are essentially a hardware company- (which happens to have great support for their machines) Perhaps you want M$ Office on your machine? Because really OSX has nothing else to offer except perhaps compatibility with other Mac machines. Your best bet is to switch to linux entirely. If you are interested in running unix tools on the HFS file systems, you should look into Darwin, and the now defunct OpenDarwin, but you will not be able to run the normal Mac GUI and most all of the commercial Macintosh applications. You could also look at sites about putting full OSX on the AppleTV, which would be applicable (and a preferable solution.)

There are sites on the net which have instructions on how to do this for x86 OS X, which unfortunately has complicated hardware issues as well as questionable legal status. On OS X Tiger, I also have a lot of console emulators installed.Theoretically, you would want to install X86 OSX as a native OS on your machine, preferably on its own partition, but I believe this might be against the latest Apple license agreement, which I think requires OSX to be installed only on Apple hardware.

Marathon - Runs fine, mouse also works better still sucks Warcraft - Runs full speed, but CD audio is not working Blackthorne - Does not work, same error 14 I get from Basilisk II Prince of Persia 2- Runs full speed and almost with functional music (it's a bit slow at some points, but still a little better than on Basilisk II) I used Dosbox to install the OS and copy the games, then copied the image to my retro machine.
Tried running on an retro computer with MS-DOS, it's the easiest one to setup since you don't need any Mac OS installation and ROM. The other games didn't work.Blackthorne hangs up while loading and the other games crash to DOS Prince of Persia 1 - Runs full speed and with sound It runs pretty well in general, but it was kind of a pain to set up.Įxecutor (not exactly an emulator but I had to try it): Marathon - Runs surprisingly well, but mouse twitches a lot (may be the KVM switch I use)
Warcraft - Couldn't try since I was too lazy to make CD-ROM work Prince of Persia 2 - Runs full speed, but music is slow Prince of Persia 1 - Runs full speed with music and sound I tried some emulators myself, here are the results:
