It is a piece of Homebrew PSP software called BasiliskII that emulates 68k macs if your wondering how it's done. Although I've never tried it and probably never will.

The emulator yes, but depending on what version of Mac OS that is maybe, it would be against the EULA if its too new.

It isn't legal.Atleast i think not,Sony doesnt want people hacking the PSP.


That being said,im impressed with how fast it loads.I've seen windows 95 on a psp and it takes liek 12 minutes to boot.

Indeed they have. However, in order to run Basilisk II legally (and there are Mac versions too), you need the ROM image from an actual 68K Mac. I'm sure you can find those floating around on the net, but they aren't legal. So, to answer the question, it can be legal but probably isn't.

It is legal now, there was a recent ruling that states that if the hardware is no longer available, its legal to crack it to make it work.

I have a 20 MB folder with all the stuff that you'll need. If you're interested, I could e-mail it, and some old-school games like Marathon with it.
