I also have linuxPPC running on a G3. However at this point it is just an amusement for me. My "real" linux boxes are all intel hardware. Why? The Mac still remains for me far more useful and enjoyable as a desktop machine (much unlike windows on my intel machines) and very rarely crashes despite a boat load of extensions and continuously having at least a half dozen programs open at once. Once OSX ships I think it will clearly initially be the choice as a desktop machine for most Mac heads like myself (we generally love our operating system for the most part, as opposed to tolerating it like much of the windows community). However, I don't know how long that choice will be so clear as linux matures to a more enjoyable experience for the average desktop user. It will be especially interesting to see how the Eazel Gnome project (former Mac designers) competes with OSX for the hearts of the Mac users! -- Regards, Eric Mings Ph.D.
