I have a G5 iMac 2.1 Gb Power Chip Machine WITH the Built-in iSight.
I purchased this just before the convergence to Intel inbside Machines,and now I am locked out of the chance to buy and run what I specifically want from my imac.
Basically I want to buy and install Virtual 7 that in turn will allow me to buy hopefully Word for Mac and Publisher also can anyone advise me from here I am very novice with the mac and only toyed with the pc from the days of DX2-66Mhz before pentium as most will know.

I went to the local Mac User Group website and found a VPC Ver 7 +
WinXP ... for $50. Many have bought them then decided to go to Intel
Mac ... but never installed VPC on their PPC system..

Find the nearest such group and post a request... you'll probably find
one as I did.

There SURE must be a Market... did you see the prices at Amazon? Or
try eBay... just as bad... the price at $250 is just too much,
AFAIAK....

Cheers

Remember, if you move to an Intel Mac you will not be able to use the
Windows that is bundled with VPC7. If you provide your own copy of Windows
you will.

There is Open Source solutions for you like BOCHS and QEMU and then
commercial solutions like iEmulator, Wintel, and GuestPC. I had tried
Wintel in 2004 and found it to be horribly slow and not working properly. I
don't know how the latest version is though. I have the current iEmulator
1.79 and that works well but performance and polish is not up to VPC 7.X but
at $20 it's not bad. I have never tried GuestPC. Virtual PC is still
probably your best bet with a PPC Mac. I have iEmulator for Operating
Systems that Virtual PC will not run.
