Which distro for Mac notebook? (was: I need help please)

[AngelSleuth]

I have just been give a apple mac lap top, and I wish to run a windows based on-line game on it.

I'm not sure if a emulator will do it, so some one said I should use linux.

So here's the question can u run linux on a mac and if so how??

Where do i get a copy from??


Many Thanks

Angel

Many of the distros have ppc versions. Take a look at distrowatch (http://distrowatch.com/search.php?category=All&origin=All&basedon=All&desktop=All&architecture=powerpc&status=Active) to get yourself started.

I agree but it simply wont work. Mac laptops dont have the graphic chip sets to run a decent game. On top of that you will have a windows emulator and emulating x86 on power pc. I just dont see how it would be playable.
