As what Niall said,
But also Linux PPC is shaping up nicely or he
simply could wait and see if the BSD layer comes as an optional install in
MacOS X. It depends however on how Apple decide to brand OS X Client, some
people are saying for Blue and white G3's/original iMac and beyond only,
others have got it working on previous models with little effort.
Mac hardware is quickly becoming a very viable Unix platform..and it's about
time too.
