Around 2006 Apple changed over to Intel processors.
A computer running Mac OS will be an Apple Macintosh computer.
No. Snow Leopard is a Intel-Processor Only application. Any computer running 10.4 is PowerPC, which would not allow it to run 10.6.
Providing the Intel processor is in an Apple Mac computer, and the rest of the computer parts are present too, then Mac OS X can be installed.
Hi, PowerPC mac is a mac computer that has a powerPC processor. Note PowerPC = Power Performance Computing(Not Personal Computer!)
The Mac operating system has been used on a variety of architectures, from the Motorola 68000 to the PowerPC 601 to the Intel Core 2 Duo. The latest release of Mac OS X requires a computer with an Intel processor.

No, you have a Mac Mini using the Power PC G4 processor. Only a Mac running the Intel Processor can run 10.6.8 Snow Leopard. You can however install 10.5.8 Leopard on your Mac Mini.
The eMacs were discontinued in 2006. The earlier versions with a G4 processor running at less than 1GHz can run Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger). The later versions with a G4 Processor running faster than 1GHz can run Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard). Select About this Mac from the Apple menu (top left) to determine the speed of the processor.
The requirements for running Mac OS X Leopard are: ▪ Mac computer with an Intel, PowerPC G5, or PowerPC G4 (867MHz or faster) processor ▪ 512MB of memory ▪ DVD drive for installation ▪ 9GB of available disk space
