There are so many threads about which HW platform might be a candidate for this "ambitious project" that we may have already discussed the answer.
I haven't read them all, but as Tension says "brace yourselves for disappointment".

Taking into account that x86 has been ruled out, I decided to Google for PPC on x86. A number of PPC processor boards were returned. These seem to slot onto x86 PCI/PCIe motherboards giving PPC compatibility.

Does anyone here have an informed opinion as to whether this would be a viable option for getting OS onto "mainstream HW"?
