Does anybody have a CD of Mac OSX? I'd be interested in seeing if anyone has any success getting an emulated copy running on their PC with PearPC.

PearPC is an open source system emulator, like Virtual PC, except it is made to emulate PowerPC systems on x86 processors, so you can run MacOS on your Windows machine@

I borrowed the OSX cd from someone and i did get it running on my pc. just so you know, you should have a powerful machine in order for it to even run like a 500 mhrz pc. on my machine it ran pretty slow and i had a little trouble emulating the network on it so i could get on the net with it. i've since deleted PPC and the HD image with osx installed on it.

My machine is
Athlon T-bird 1G
512 MB ram

it took me about 2 hours to get the installation finished hehe.

MAC OS on a windows machine? Isn't that like a brunett dying her hair blonde? lol

considering the huge difference in clock mesurements yes. took me 2 and a half hours to install onto a partitioned image.
