PC Emulation on A1?

From what i've heard, WINE needs a x86 (since it's not an emulator) and a VM like bochs would be the only answer.

Though maybe it would be possible to somehow implement the Win32 APIs - it'd be hard, though, and microsoft would't like it one bit!

As it has been posted on the WinE mailing, it should be possible to build the CPU emulation of Bochs into WinE to make it possible to run x86-Windows software on other systems :-D

If someone would port WinE itself, then we could be able to use the few PPC-Windows programs, from WinNT-PPC :-D But there are only few!

Didnt NT4.0 have Mips, DECAlpha and PPC versions
on the same CD? I could be wrong on that(its been
a LONG time) but if the PPC version worked on A1 it would make PC emulation beyond DOS moot.

Yep, they where all on the disc, but what would you use it for ... there where only few PPC-Windows aplications!!!

If someone would port WinE to AmigaOS4, then we would anyway be able to use those aplications :-D
