There was something called "Yellow Box" which (IIRC, and I may not,  
it's been a long time) was supposed to let people develop Win32 apps  
in OS X but it (apparently) died an early death back in the days of  
Rhapsody.

I don't think it was an emulator like VirtualPC or a non-emulator  
like WINE.
