Running Mac programs on a PC. in Tech Support
Theron Apprentice Member # 637	written Friday, August 1 2003 05:43 Profile #8 There are Mac-emulators. For infos see: www.macwindows.com/emulator.html e.g. - Basilisk II Host Operating Systems: Windows 95/98/NT, BeOS 4, Amiga, and UNIX Description: From one of the creators of SheepShaver (see below), an open source 68000 Mac emulator for Windows 95/98/NT, BeOS, Amiga, and UNIX. Emulates either a Mac Classic (which runs Mac OS 0.x thru 7.5) or a Mac II series machine (which runs MacOS 7.x, 8.0 and 8.1), depending on the ROM being used. Supports sound output, color display, 1.44 MB floppies, CD-ROM, Ethernet, SCSI. Emulates extended ADB keyboard and 3-button mouse. Can exchange files with the PC operating system using a "Host Directory Tree" icon on the Mac desktop. - Mac-on-Linux Host Operating Systems: LinuxPPC (PPC hardware needed!) Description: An open source Macintosh emulator that runs on top of LinuxPPC. It runs on Macintosh hardware, so the processor is NOT emulated. It can boot Mac OS 8.6-to-9.2 within Linux without a ROM image. Sorry, I haven't used any of theese myself (I have Macs and PCs). But I believe there are people using an emulator (Basilisk?) to run EV games (Escape Velocity) on a PC. So give the Spiderweb games a try.
