I have done this with googletest cross compiled to Linux on a Powerpc architecture.
Fix issue on Powerpc with Tiger(10.4) introduced by a recent change to for dreamweaver compatibility.
If your Mac has a Powerpc chip of over 1GHz,
is maxed out with RAM and is capable of running Leopard, upgrade!
Linux is released in server versions for x86, x86-64, Itanium, Powerpc and IBM System z,
and desktop versions for x86 and x86-64.
While most new applications are at least Universal binaries,
some are Powerpc, and running these through Rosetta on your Intel Mac can
cause a performance decrease.
Red Hat Enterprise Linux is released in server versions for x86, x86-64, Itanium, Powerpc and IBM System z,
and desktop versions for x86 and x86-64.
Up until August 2006, Apple's most powerful computer they offer, the Power Macintosh(later renamed Power Mac),
contained a Powerpc chip, so they really aren't all that old.
On x64 this is mitigated by the
other architectural improvements like more registers, but on Powerpc if your application can't use >4G it's
likely to run faster on"ppc" than"ppc64".
I have been a virtualized-gaming skeptic,
but the results with this new version are what every delusional Mac gamer was hoping was achievable in the days of VirtualPC on the Powerpc.
