You could try to write a i386 virtual machine for PocketPC, and install a Windows (98, 2k, XP) on that virtual machine. :P

Sorry, just kidding :lol: . No, actually you can't run a PC binary on a PPC. If you have the source code than you can compile it for PPC, if there aren't unsuported features inthe code (usually there are :( so you have to change the code). It's usually hard work to port an application that was written without thinking of porting it (does the Bridge pattern ring a bell? :wink: )
