Re: Offtopic - Apple Macs PC Emulators

Well mum now has a shiny new iMac on the way; 17" monitor, 1.25GHz, Superdrive, the whole shebang.
In spite of the good things said about Macs, I expect a phonecall or two.
Thought if I could get a Mac emulator on my PC, I may be able to answer questions other than "did you switch the power on? No you shouldnt feed the mouse cheese or oil the keyboard etc etc."

Anyone know of a decent emulator (free of course)?

Cheers
