Is it possible to run Gmax under the Linux operating system?

I know it is only supposed to run under Windows, but is there an emulator or something similar that could make it run on Linux?
I would like to know if it's possible as I would consider installing Linux on my Playstation 3 and using that to render objects as well as using my PC.

The 256MB of RAM on the PS3 may limit the size of objects that can be exported, but it would still be useful if I was exporting a large number of objects.

I think Gmax won't be able to use the PS3's CPU in a way that provides a benefit over a PC, as it was not made with this use in mind. Also DO NOT install linux on your PS3 unless you have a HDTV. On SDTV's the linuw UI will be command prompt based instead of a GUI.
