Or a PPC on PCI card.  X86 boots the BIOS and PCI card takes over from there.  Maybe the HD plugs onto the PCI card instead of internal IDE/SATA connector.  Again, maybe cheaper just to build a new PPC mobo than a card like this anyway.

Software PPC Emulator being more likely and X86 port being smarter.  Who cares about the "future" though, I mean, I don't really think it even exists.  I guess I'll find out tomorrow.

Back in my day, we didn\'t have water. We only had Oxygen and Hydrogen, and we\'d just have to shove them together.
