Hello,

I have a weird question...can you run MacOSX on a pc with Windows XP? I partitioned my hard drive with PowerQuest PartitionMagic and I have PowerQuest BootMagic. I heard you can run multiple operating systems using BootMagic. But...will MacOSX install as well as recognize my hardware? Please let me know. Thanks.

Hiya,

Sorry, but no MacOSX on X86 hardware yet (AFAIK)
No emulator under XP yet (AFAIK)

Lots of 68000/68020/68040 emulators that will run MacOS up to versions 8.1 (but nothing later - no PowerPC support).

You can get a lot of the look-and-feel of OSX using Linux (with a LOT or hard work), but it won't be OSX.

If you need it that much, best buy a G5 ;)

Hope this helps...
