There are a lot of programs for Mac because the Mac was a much better
computer then the IBM. Not any more but there are so many of them out there
that support and software will be supplied. It is further aided by the
cuteness of the iMac (THE best reason to buy a computer: It's translucent
and aerodynamic) and Apples Y2K bug marketing push. You could try a Mac
Emulator. Some require cards and some are shareware. It depends on what you
get. I saw one for MacOS 8 but I can't find it. You will probably need a
fast computer (300Mhz should do it. My K6-2 doesn't slow down so a pentium
II should work (even tho it is inferior)) There are also Unix and Amiga
emulators to. (I might run a mac emulator, on an amiga emulator on my PC.
Just to see what happens...) Try this link:
http://www.macwindows.com/emulator.html#Maconother

I don't want to hear about the legality of it from Mac cultists. You can
also run PC programs on your Mac. It's called MacWindows and it's a good
program..
