Yes, EQmac server was / is Al'Kabor. I understood that the developer who did the craptastic port of EQ to the Mac had to make sufficient changes to the code base to where it required it's own server, which essentially doomed it to niche status given the state of Mac gaming at the time.
Bootcamp will certainly work for running the Titanium client for Project 1999.
I've been using Parallels Desktop 6, running Windows XP in a virtual machine, given it's enhanced support for 3D graphics (DX9, I believe) and it's been working very well except for the gamma adjustment not working.
I'm in the process of setting the same under VirtualBox to see how that's working. (There are two virtualboxes - both are by Oracle/Sun, but one is binary only that's been derived from the Open Source version.) I don't have a report just yet but I should know in the next couple of days whether or not VirtualBox works.
I attempted to use Wine under Mac OS X but there were a *lot* of graphics issues and the game client crashed quite often. Crossover (once again, that costs $$) may work better.
