AFAIK, you need an x86 machine.  If your Mac is of the Intel variety,
Vmware released a beta for Vmware Fusion, a Vmware server for OSX.  I
just bought a macbook this week, and haven't tried the to use Fusion
yet, so I don't have a specific report.

Part of my justification for buying the Macbook was "I have to help
OLPC change the world."

Which is the cheesiest justification for a hardware purchase...ever.
