Mac-On_Linux (MOL) is your answer, and I believe, although you'd better
check this, that OS X now works to at least some degree with it. However
you will need a powerpc cpu as it doesn't work with x86 cpus. Every now
and again I look for mac emulators for the pc and never seem to find one
that is satisfactory. I have been lead to believe that it is much harder
to run powerpc binaries on a pc, that is it to emulate pc binaries on a
powerpc (not too sure why). So in short I think you will find it almost
impossible unless you are using a mac already,
cheers
