PearPC running Mac OS X 10.3 – A How To!
There it was on the net, something called PearPC, which is a G3 emulator for Windows and Linux environments. Of course, a PPC running on a Windows machine just screamed out for me to try and get it to run Mac OS-X.

10.3 Reasons Why You Need to Buy Two eMacs. Today.
Let’s do the math. Basic eMacs cost $800 each. Add AppleCare service plans and shipping or tax and the price is a cool thousand bucks per computer.

Thoughts on the website VidLit and interview with site creator Liz Dubelman
I knew instinctively this was something different, something I’d not seen before on the now almost predictable internet. The notice at the bottom of the screen that was loading said Total Running Time: 8:06. "Ruthie!" I yelled to my office mate across the hall, "I’m going to be busy for the next eight minutes!"

The REAL 20th Anniversary Macintosh
In May of 1997, Apple Computer Inc. released a dream machine, the 20th Anniversary Macintosh.
