X-wing on a macbook

Hey, I'm not sure if this is possible. Is there anyway to get the original x-wing game to work on a white macbook that isn't running bootcamp or anything. I have no idea, and a google search didn't really help. I don't have the original disks, and I'm not sure if it was ever made for mac, but let's assume I can get a version of it if it is out there. If someone knows of a legal download site I could purchase, that'd be cool too.

Thanks!

    yeah I figure even if I COULD find it, legit or otherwise, the odds of it running are slim to none? I always had problems trying to get the pc one to work on modern computers, I'm not sure if macs would be the same.

    Wow, was that ever easy to do, and man does 1993 ever look terrible. Nostalgia can't even help this one.

    Anyway, lock this, and if anyone wants to know where I found this, just pm.

    The legit free way would have been to use DOSBox.

    That is what I did... and you're right, it works!
