Yellow Dog, Debian and Mandrake all do a PPC version of Linux. However,
emulators for Mac software have been been pretty much proof-of-concept only
so far or limited to very old verions of MacOS so you won't get MacOSX apps
running on Linux in emulation.

Why, prey tell, would you want to emulate Mac apps on a Mac running Linux?
