Why don't you look for MacOS X solutions? Far and away, your best solution is Virtual PC. You may also try Bochs, which may or may not work with the G5. On general principle, I do not recommend OpenOSX Wintel. It is an implementation of opensource Bochs with G4/G5 acceleration and a price tag.trainguy77 said:
Go with QemuX: http://cordney.com/QemuX
It's a lot faster than bochs, and still free. I'm not sure how Qemu compared to VPC, but I don't think there's too much difference. Inside of Qemu, you can either get a version of Windows and run that, or else run Wine (http://www.winehq.org) inside of Linux, if you don't want to purchase anything.
