bboyroe Posted May 24, 2002 Share Posted May 24, 2002 What you are asking to do is impossible, osx only works on macs, you obviously have a pc. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/28444-convert-winmac/#findComment-259567 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bling3k12 Posted May 28, 2002 Share Posted May 28, 2002 the Mac OS requires the use of a PowerPC processor, which uses a different set of instructions than an Intel or AMD x86 processor...

Depriest Posted May 30, 2002 Share Posted May 30, 2002 There's this really nifty program called Rhapsody. It was orginally OS X Server, and it will compile on x86 Intel machines. Just need to find it somewhere.... :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/28444-convert-winmac/#findComment-270600 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazzla Veteran Posted May 30, 2002 Veteran Share Posted May 30, 2002 Rhapsody is on the_real_duckie's server last time I checked, maybe you should check that out. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/28444-convert-winmac/#findComment-271712 Share on other sites More sharing options...
