They wont. They dont use the same FAT system.

I dont believe the BIOS is compatible either.

They don't even use the same language.

PCs work with everything except the MAC OS... iMacs work with nothing except MAC OS(EDIT: shouldn't say that, other OS's work with Macs).

yep, I have an old mac (mac clone actually) that runs Linux like a champ--a very slow but functional champ.  the only apple os it can run is macos 8.1 which is like over 5 years old now... but a current linux 2.4 kernel is no prob.   ;)
