Any Emulator That Will Allow Apple iLife to Work on a PC?

[Elfear]

Basically like the title says, I have a friend who wants to use iLife (Apple multimedia package) but I'm trying to talk him into buying a PC (for cost and performance reasons). Is there an emulator or another application that will allow this to work?

Nope.

If he wants a Mac, let him get one. Especially if iLife is one of the things attracting him to the platform.

He isn't a big computer user so I told him if the Mac software is what he likes than he should go with that. I was just trying to save the guy $500-600 if iLife would have worked on a PC.

If he doesn't game, then a Mac Mini should be fine for his needs. Its cheap enough so you don't have to build him a PC to save on funds.

Well, he was looking for an IMac with the 20" screen which is going for ~$1500. I know I could build a computer with the same specs for ~$800. I'll have to look and see what a Mac Mini goes for.

What about drivers and legality? Those are the issues he brought up with me when we were talking about running the x86 version of OSX on a PC. I imagine that if you had a legit version of OSX than there shouldn't be any legality issue but I don't know for sure. Not sure how drivers would work.
