Wasabi is pleased to note that we've released a port of NetBSD to the
IBM 405GP PowerPC processor -- most specifically to IBM's "Walnut"
evaluation board. I believe this is the 43rd port of NetBSD to date,
although I must admit that I've somewhat lost track.

The Walnut is an ATX form-factor motherboard designed to drop into a PC
case -- it has the usual PCI bus, peripherals, etc. You can read more
about the Walnut here:
