I'm taking a trip, and for reasons of chronic dilatoriness I'd like to run a classic Mac program (the antique MacMoney) on my 13" MacBook Pro (Snow Leopard). Is there a simple-to-install-and-run emulator that will run on my MBP? I know of SheepShaver,

but it requires finding a ROM file* and various other fiddling to get working, and I have no time for a project.
Not holding my breath, but with all the Intel OS X Macs out there, you'd think there'd be a pretty sizable market for folks whose old PowerPC machines have bit the dust and still want to run 'Classic' (OS 9 and earlier) software.

* Is it possible to copy the ROM off my blue G3 and use it on the MBP?
