This looks like it honest to goodness emulates a G3 or even G4 though. |
The newest version MacOS of the 68k emulators is MacOS 8.1. MacOS 8.5 is PPC-only. As for the PearPC, if it "works," it is only an idle curiosity. That it is currently claimed to run at 1/500 the speed of the host seems reasonable and will not improve substantially with optimization. This means that a 3 GHz Intel-compatible processor will yield the performance of a 6 MHz PowerMac G3, which is about 1/10 of the performance of the original PowerMac 6100/60. Quite frankly, it is so slow that I have substantial doubts about any claims made about PearPC. I mean, how do you test them?
