Hello Everyone I recently became the owner of a 2011 11' Macbook air, it has an i5 with 4gb of ddr3 Ram, the only issue however is that it overheats on Maverick, Yosemite and El Capitan even just running simple games or applications, so it is pretty useless unless you want to use it strictly for Halo (Which oddly runs fine at a cool 130-140F, Compared to a youtube video at 150-160F), Anyways i think ive finialy figured out the problem which is the logic board (My guess is that there is some corrupted part that fails to thermal throttle it, any ways i was thinking about the good old days when I originally got into macs and ppcs and how i saved up my money and bought 4 g4 macbooks and would find all kinds of fun applications and games that would only run on them, Seeing now they are all gone i was wondering if i could turn this obviously more powerful macbook air into a ppc that could run leopard and ppc applications.
Thanks for the advice

Some posts I've read in the past on this forum can occasionally be confusing, but rarely one as confusing as this - and even more so, your follow-up replies.
From your post #1, your
goal was clearly stated, "turn this obviously more powerful macbook air
into a ppc" (forget the part about running Leopard and PPC applications) these would have been bi-products in succeeding.
In trying to convince yourself that you've succeeded, in fact you've deluded yourself, arguing your case totally unsuccessfully against those who state one thing clearly i.e. it's IMPOSSIBLE to convert a macbook air into a PPC.
Also linking to videos (that you've not even fully watched, and certainly not understood) is not only misleading, but imho somewhat insulting.
And if that wasn't enough, in a very immature, over-smug statement in post #21, you finally shoot yourself in the foot in saying, "i already completed my Goal which everyone said wasnt possible", could have been penned by a Monty-Python script-writer!
Your goal as stated was to turn your Macbook Air into a PPC. This
cannot be achieved.
It sounds as if you are young, and have a lot to learn, so please listen to the sound advise that good-meaning and knowledgeable folks here are telling you. You can't fool them, but are deluding yourself.
