Default SEIV mac Users?

I'm thinking of buying a mac but the *only* thing that is stoping me is Space Empires. Is anyone out there playing SE on an emulator? If so, is it OK?

Seriously hoping to get rid of my PC/XP machine

Why would you buy a Mac? What a waste of money! Spend 1/10th as much money to get better hardware man! If you don't want to use Windows any more, there are plenty of free Linux builds out there to choose from... this is essentially what you will get with a Mac, as they are based on FreeBSD now, which is very similar to Linux... only without the bloated Mac crap software...

I've never heard of good Windoze enviroment simulators for OSX. The only option is Virtual PC for OSX. It costs $$ and - most amazing - it's from Necro.. err MicroSoft
Btw, what Mac are you bying? G5? Just interesting.
