Do we have a SheepShaver for OSX running PowerPC G3?

I thought I'd ask. If we can get the source for Intel, why not the others?

I guess because of the silence, I'll take no for an answer.

Exactly what is is your question?
SheepShaver emulates a G4 on all non-PPC platforms and uses the PPC processor directly on a PPC machine.
From the "features" as listed on Gwenole Beauchesne's site: "PowerPC G4 emulation on non-PowerPC platforms, direct execution otherwise"

SheepShaver for MacOSX is UB (Universal Binary) and thus runs on both Intel and PPC. The latest builds run on Tiger and Leopard only, the May 2006 snapshot by Gwenole may run on 10.3, but I am not sure, it was compiled for 10.4.6.

Do you mean "Sheepshaver running ON a G3 PPC machine"? If so, of course, yes:

If you mean something else, please clarify.

Sheepshaver runs on my iBook G3, of course slow as hell.
BTW is there someone managed to run Sheepshaver inside PearPC?
