> Support for alternative operating systems on the G5 is generally worse.
GNU/Linux support for 1 G5 machine is much better than for the entire G4 line :) For example, ALSA driver snd-aoa works perfectly, even for sound input (not to say about G4 machines, especially G4 DA and eMacs, they do rarely have any working sound at all). For another example, Nvidia PCIe cards work perfectly with free nouveau driver, in fully hw accelerated OpenGL 1.4 mode. Well, GNU/Linux@PowerPC doesn't have the great TenFourFox, fork of mozilla.
