[App_rpt-users] Mac Mini G4

[Stephen A. Misel]

Virtualization won't change the base hardware architecture.  If your system
is G4, you will not be able to run an Intel-based OS in a VM.   George, I
suspect your Mini has an Intel CPU if you are running AllStar.

That being said, it is possible to run Linux on a G4.
