Does anyone know how to install or run on MacBook Sesame (Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard)?
It could post a tutorial?

Undecided

You would need to emulate either a Windows or Linux operating system. I believe that there are emulators / virtualizers (such as VMWare/Xen/etc...) available for Mac OS.

Thank Mark.
I will try with VirtualBox.

I've used both VMWare and VirtualBox on Linux with about equal and good results. I also tried to use Xen, but it has hardware requirements my laptop doesn't meet.

I tested the Crossover for MAC OSx, liked the look of sesame was perfect, but the performace this slow.

No. I am not on a mac. I'm on Linux and use both VMWare and VirtualBox. But, yes. Remember that any virtualization software is going to have to pretend to be the low level hardware that keeps a computer running. That is very resource intensive, for CPU, I/O and memory. It will be much slower pretending to be another machine "in a window".

Try to provide as much memory as you can for the virtual machine. Other than that, you might consider running Linux instead of Windows. While the interface isn't quite as fast, everything else is much faster.
