You could emulate a MAC OS using the beta VMWARE software running on top of a MS OS, and the MAC OS that can run on intel based processors.

That is a good idea, but Kefe can make no use of this information.

Try this Kefe, go to Microsoft’s home site, and download a free trial of Microsoft Virtual PC 2004.
Install the software.
Then you are going to have to get the Mac OS or compatibly Clone, and install the OS onto virtual PC.
It is probably going to run like ass, but it will work.
Just out of curiosity, what do you need to run MAC software for?
Good luck!

Really? You wont. You need to either stick to a PC based OS or BUY a Mac. This doin one with the other is barely gonna work and will cost you a crap load of time and energy.

I agree 100%.
Kefe, it would take you months just to figure out how to install the MAC software on the Mac emulator. The emulator is going to cost you $40.00.
The Mac software is going to probably cost close to $200.00.
The only reason someone would want to do this, is maybe that they were computer nerds, and just wanted to do it for the sake of doing it.
What you want to do is not practical.

You can buy a Mac, run VIrtual PC on it, then install XP on that.


No Milk, no.
Milk is for babies. When you grow up, you have to drink beer.
