If this works out, I really like the idea of using free software. I would like to be able to assure the church (or any organization who would accept them) that software (including OS) licensing would never be a concern, issue, or liability for them. I wonder if anyone has done a custom ubuntu distro for the G3 (would a custom kernel be necessary?) Debian seems to support the most architectures. Perhaps a light Debian install with LXDE or something similar would work.
