Sorry, I don't know how you would do it since i hate Mac and apple. (lets face it, the crappiest part about a Ipod is Itunes.)
Can you emulate Windows? Microsoft released the stuff needed for Windows XP and windows 98 is free ware now.

Parallels or boot camp to get Windows on your Apple, all versions of RPG maker require windows.

There's two ways of running Windows on an Apple computer.
First is boot camp. All intel based Apples have the ability to run Windows natively. You buy a Windows 7 license and you can set up a boot menu that lets you choose which OS to run.
Second is Parallels, which is virtualization software. It creates a virtual machine within the Apple OS that's running Windows.
I only know of these at a basic level as I have no interest in their computers. Talk to an Apple person for more information.

Sorry but I have a weird search engine on this computer. If you type "Windows+virtual+machine+for+Mac" in to google, you should get the same results.

Windows 98 is freeware? How come I never heard of it? I thought Microsoft was still trying to nickel and dime people for MS-DOS. XD

They don't support it anymore. Some website that had 98 ISO was given the codes and the rights to release them for 98 and 95.
That's what i heard at least. Nothing that runs 64BIT hardware can use the 98 or 95 and any hardware that's 32bit is likely to new and doesn't have the correct drives made for the OS.

VMWare is the best one i've used, though if i remember right you have to pay for it, and from what i hear there is a similar program, VirtualBox, though i have no clue what the name of the site is, nor do i know if it is any good. All i really do know is some of my class mates use it when messing with the registry or other dangerous settings.
