I want it go give a shot on PPC mining with a old computer that I can use a few hours with no electricity costs.
No, this computer has only a onboard Intel GPU, don't give me any OpenCL miners.
The only problem is, there are any CPU Miners(the software itself) for PPC?

PPC is SHA-2 correct? Any Bitcoin CPU miner should work with the proper .conf settings! I don't really know much about PPC, so I may be wrong here with the whole PoW vs PoS, but it won't hurt anything to try!

In my opinion, you should just try to obtain BTC in a different way, since it is a waste of electricity (protect the environment ^^) to mine with bad hardware.

Oh yeah, I would feel pretty much better of not wasting 0.000000000001% of the total world energy consumption, instead of earning a few satoshis.

Lol, cpu mining is useless. Even gpu mining these days often is at a loss...

There's no standard exchange rate?
I'm just going to keep repeating "it's an Altera HardCopy" because I haven't the slightest clue what I'm talking about.
