The Rosetta emulation platform in 10.4.3 build 8F1111A has been upgraded to feature full G4 support, including Altivec. This not only adds a new layer of compatibility to Rosetta, but also improved speed for Altivec-equipped applications. Also, new ATI drivers available in 10.4.3 seem to offer much greater support for PC ATI graphics chipsets.

Tell you what. Go to www.artofillusion.org and compare that product to 3DS MAX. Seriously. AoI will run on any hardware. Essentially what you are suggesting apple do is re-invent Java but at an OS level. What see seem to miss is that to do so they would still have to invent some sort of VM or interpreter that is platform specific to execute your platform agnostic code. This would be, to be frank, a waste of time and energy. I can't even begin to imagine how painful a full OS would be written in Java. There are so many technical issues with what you suggest that it boggles my mind that no one has bothered to really call you out on it yet.
