I sense some confusion here. If its a PC only program, it needs to
run on 2 things:
1) Aindows APIs, and
2) An Intel chip
Running Yellow DOg (or any of the other mac linuxes) will NOT allow
you to use WINE, because under it all, condition #2 is not satisfied.
You have a powerPC chip.
Also, careful grouping WINE with emulators. The name WINE, after
all, stands for "wine is not an emulator". It maps APIs only, it
does not emulate an intel x86 chip.
To run it on a mac, get the actual, slow-as-molasis emulator, virtualPC.
