Wonder if today the Win7 machines can also run the Mac Os? Or to put it another way can an Apple run software written for Windows?

Yes - it’s fairly easy to make a Hackintosh out of a basic Windows box. You can then run OS X 10.5 or 10.6 easily. I’m sure 10.7 support is probably out there but i haven’t played with it. Then you run any of a dozen virtualizers and install Windows alongside it. Main thing is to have enough cpu cycles & enough ram.

For that matter, you can, if you wish, use Bootcamp to install windows on a Macbook, for example, and never run a Mac program again.
