This simulated environment is called a virtual machine (VM) and enables a Virtual PC on your Mac.
Is it possible to virtualize a PowerPC Tiger?
There are many ways to emulate a PowerPC Tiger system on modern Intel systems, but virtualization options for (Intel) Tiger are few and far between. VMware Fusion *can* run the Intel version of Tiger Server if you can tame it (10.5 Server was the first officially supported virtualized Mac OS X).
