Sorry, but the software just won't run.

Intel chips (using a CISC architecture) don't like macintosh software (which uses a RISC architecture).

Theoretically software could be emulated, but there has been no successful emulation so far, because of the disparities b/w CISC and RISC.

Maybe in like 5 years. Until then, the best suggestion is find a place that buys used software then replace it with the PC version.
