So basically is there any program/software I could purchase and download that would allow me to run this jailbreak Mac program on my Windows machine?
 
simple answer: its mac only, you said so yourself
not so simple answer: get lion running in VMware

Jailbreaks these days are pretty simple and a somewhat quick procedure. Perhaps you have a friend who has a Mac? Takes about ten minutes.
 
As far as i have seen it doesn't say mac only...
Musclenerd tweeted that there will be a redsn0w version, redsn0w is both mac and win.
 
It'll probably be released for mac first, but will be available for windows few hours/days later.
 
I had forgotten about that at first. I'm hoping the Windows version is released by Friday. It always seems to be a few days after the Mac version.
 
I'm sure they will have a windows version, it still dominates the desktop OS market. By releasing it as a Mac exclusive they would successfully halve, if not more, the amount of jailbroken devices.

Just imagine the forum raging... People still complaining about yellow screens.
