If you are going to run pc programs, get a pc and save the money, hassle and headaches.
The G4 was a PowerPC processor, not an Intel processor. It was not supposed to ever be compatible with x86 applications.

Today's mac processors are Intel processors and can even boot Windows natively or run it in a window through Parallels.
