PPC Emulator? Do any exist?

[Maced]

I'm looking for a PPC emulator to test out software, as I might get into programming for ppc (Seems a lot more basic then C++) ... So, are there any?

[Sven Johannsen]

Yes, if your intent is to program. Visual Studio, or eMbedded Visual Tools, come with a PPC emulator that allows you to check out your app on PC emulating PPCs, in various flavors, even handhelds. It 'interpretes' source code to run on an X86 in a PPC framework. Incidentally, most of it is not more basic than C++...it is C++.

What there isn't, is an emulator that can take a compiled executable and run it on a PC, which is what most folks are looking for.

If you head on down to the MS site, you will also find some SDKs for WM2003 and WM2003SE that you can try out. These aren't dedicated stand-alone emulators you can install and run, but are designed to be embedded in VS packages.
