Specifically, a windows emulator for macs and a mac emulator for windows.

Or, more specifically, recommendations.

If I may ask a silly question (which tendency I'm certain you may appreciate)...

If you have two computers, one a mac, and one running windows, don't you already have everything?

Just for fun, I'd like to try running the Windows emulator under the Mac emulator running under Windows. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Either that or...GOTTA CATCH 'EM ALL!!!!

PC running MAC:
SoftMac (for up to v8) (http://www.emulators.com/)
Many emulators (http://www.kearney.net/~mhoffman/macpc.html)
I tried Basilisk II a loong time ago, it worked sometimes.


MAc running PC
http://www.macwindows.com/emulator.html
A page with many links. Have never tried this.
http://www.torahresource.com/Accord.html
Accordance, never heard of...
Virtual PC from MS (http://www.microsoft.com/mac/products/virtualpc/virtualpc.aspx?pid=virtualpc)


The best page in both categories seems to be the one mentioned above in this post:
http://www.macwindows.com/emulator.html
