hi!

i am considering obtaining a powerbook for use as a netbsd laptop
(mmm, 10 hour runtime), and i'm curious about a few things

a) what's people's experiences with the newer powerbooks in general?

b) does netbsd run well on them? what about with x11?

c) is it easy to multiboot between MacOS (9, X, whatever) and NetBSD?

d) according to the netbsd www pages we don't support the firewire
powerbooks yet. any idea how this is going?

thanks for any response,
luke.
