I hope Mandrake continues to provide parallel release support for x86
and ppc. I've used Mandrake-Linux on the dreaded x86 platform for
some time, usually with good results. I would imagine that it will
take a bit of time for the ppc port to mature as it continues to do
on the x86 platform. In the meantime...we must keep on cooking.
Fortunately I haven't leap into the OSX debacle. Man...what was Apple
thinking when they used the BSD kernel??? No flames please! I can't
help myself...I'm a Linux man.
What does this have to do with sleep mode? I don't know either.
BTW - I don't have a fresh copy of 8.1 ppc yet but soon....very soon.
