WinNT for PPC did not run on Macs.  The machines for which NT/PPC was
intended were workstations from Motorola and others which differed a lot
from a Macintosh. Not only that, but if you could run x86 Windoze binaries
on an NT/PPC box, at all, it would have to be doing some kind of emulation
similar to what Virtual PC has to do.
