Emulating PowerPC with an X86 chip is nasty.

eh... no :) look at dolphin-emu or apple's rosetta. *but* emulating the ps3 is absolutely no option - ppc + 6 ppu's to be emulated, also the graphics-chip. not to mention the whole system itself, reconstructing busses etc.

definitely not gonna happen.

Geez, if you want to talk about emulating the PowerPC 750 from 2001 then yes, it's not so difficult.  But we're looking a little more modern here.

  right - that is why i said "not gonna happen".
