There is a commercial version of Wine calledĬross Over created by Code Weavers. Due to the use of an emulator, the PPC version will run programs at about 10-20% of your processors speed (and QEMU is a relitivly fast emulator). For those who use older PowerPC based Macs, there is a version of Darwine that uses the GPL

This means it needs an x86 processor but it is capable of achiving near native speeds. Wine is not an emulator, rather it is a compatability layer.

Direct3-D doesn't fully work, but with a little effort most stuff does work more or less (I think sound will not work on the Darwine version of Wine). You can get several programs to work on Wine. I have never used Darwine, but I have used Wine on Linux before.
