If emularion woeked at all it would be a hackintosh in the virtual pc.

If you have source code of the application it can be recompiled for powerpc.
Got a tip for us?

No...
You cannot do that. You CAN'T run Mountain Lion via emulation and expect to work as a normal installation.
Heck, stop drinking the kool-aid!
Oh great! Thats like I live in Russia and don't speak Kazakh clearly.. А зачем я бы разговарывал на казахском? Like I need it!

ONLY in PPC macs. Think of the power 7 and powerpc A2.
They are both for servers and supercomputers but beat anything intell has.

I would if I has source code. But i no have the src.
No explanation needed the machine will do it for you. The only question how hard headed is he?
That will determine the learning curve.

Don't be so sure. I have some very powerful computers at work that I'm responsible for. I believe even the current top five supercomputers are x86 based as well.
Since you know so much about this, why don't you check out an application's source code from Sourceforge and compile it?
reasonable means don't really apply to 9 year olds, btw Cassie pm me I would like to talk to you about getting on my Powerpc Talk show to tell us about your emac
I have to point out that you cannot compile, even if you have the source.
Let me remind you that you once tried to pay someone to compile something if you gave him the code. So, you can't compile it.
It is not that simple, if it were, I would be using Notepad++ instead of Komodo IDE
Stop the nonsense, it cannot be done.
The way I explain it to my parents in law who I gave my g5 is that you can't put diesel in a petrol car and vice versa. They essentially do the same thing but they aren't cross comparable.
Also Intel is not better than PPC.. TODAYS Intel chips are better than PPC chips from 7 plus years ago. No one knows which are better, many people will say risc is better than x86.

i think this is being approached the wrong way so far. i say you tell him 'it CAN be done, he just needs to study up and figure it out'.
at 9, i doubt he goes after it, but on the off chance he does, by the time he's done enough reading/research to figure it out, you'd at least have a decent programmer on your hands. then help him write an IOS app, split the money, PROFIT!
younger sibs are the best/worst of times... best of luck.
Yes you can. It just depends on what libraries and dependencies the application uses.
