I think his point is that whether a computer was designed to run *nix
isn't really related to how well it runs NetBSD. The standard IBM PCs
out there weren't designed to run *nix, but generally run NetBSD very
well. And Power Macs are arguably designed to run *nix (OpenFirmware,
PREP, CHRP, OS X have Unix ties).
