I did get it running. It was a while ago, and I don't recall the specifics.
I think it was VPC4 running on a G3.

Conclusion: too slow to be even remotely playable
In fact, it was so unplayable: I bought another computer (PC) solely to play SFC.

I've not tried it recently (VPC 6 is current - and won't run on a G5).
VPC 7 (supposedly will run on a G5) is not due until Oct. Supposedly delayed due to the slide of Win XP SP2.
