If youвЂ™re on a Mac and want a macOS virtual machine for use on that Mac, we recommend checking out out Parallels Desktop LiteВ instead, because it can create macOS virtual machines for freeВ and is a lot easier to work with. Borrow a friendвЂ™s Mac for an hour if you donвЂ™t have one, and you should be fine-everything beyond step one of this tutorialВ can be done on your Windows PC. You could, we suppose, obtain a High Sierra ISO by other means, but we donвЂ™t recommend it. NOTE: In order to get this working, you will need access to a real Mac in order to download High Sierra.

IвЂ™m planning to do an article on how the emulation of the Macintosh went on my Amiga 1200.Update: The instructions here apply to older versions of macOS. Pretty good if you ask me!

The Macintosh Garden was founded in 2001 and in 2007 the archive contained over 900 (!) games and almost 7000 comments from users. This means that it is legal to download, so no worries there. All the games have been discontinued and are no longer available for purchase. This is an abandonware games archive that is dedicated to supporting the Macintosh computer platform. I visited a site called The Macintosh Garden. Since IвЂ™m very interested in old games, I decided to go hunting for some Macintosh abandonware. If youвЂ™re interested in emulating Mac on the Amiga, have a look at this thread at, itвЂ™s very helpful.

IвЂ™ve now installed an emulator called Shapeshifter 3.11 with some extra add-ons on my Amiga 1200, along with a hard file of Mac OS 7.6.1. This means that it is actually possible to run Warcraft: Orcs and Humans, Prince of Persia 2 and other classics on an Amiga 1200 with a 68030 turbo-card! IsnвЂ™t that something? It will be interesting to try it out. Since the old MacвЂ™s used the same processor as the Amiga ( 68K series from Motorola), itвЂ™s possible to achieve smooth emulation of older games and applications. Recently IвЂ™ve been reading up on Macintosh emulation on the Amiga.
