Hmmm... I don't know what Linux, NetBSD, FreeBSD, etc. would do on one of
those.  Might be interesting to try.


Of course, with a PCI-based PowerPC machine, if you don't mind waiting
until December, I _know_ that the Mac Part will be supported by MkLinux.
Currently, MkLinux only supports the NuBus PowerMacs.  The _estimated_
release date for the PCI version is December, last I checked.
