Can I use iSilo X to run the Watchtower Library (WTlib) on an OS X Mac? I've got a PowerPC machine, maybe an Intel one a little later as well.

Thanks, people.

No! you need Isilo for mac to read it, I think you need to buy the reader.
Your WTLib must be .pdb
IsiloX is to create isilo docs that can be read with the Isilo readers.

Only, there isn't such a product out yet, is there? Any ideas when?

I am not a Mac owner (nor user) but there are a number of ways (from my understanding) to run Windows programs on Mac (even the older non intel versions)

Here is one thing I ran into:

Which would need you to purchase their software I guess:

Seems like you can try it first though!

Thx, justme. Only CrossOver Mac is for Intel only :(
Already I have been using Qemu (_with_ a Windows licence, again :( ) but the performance cost is quite severe, even on my PPC 1.67 GHz with 1GB Ram Powerbook.

I just guess I'll have to wait until I buy my Mactel machine.

Ok have you tried to run the iSilo for 'regular' windows under that?
