dear all,

ever since i remarked about the mac on an eye-candy thread, have been
wondering about the state-of-the-mac and decided to do some digging.

darwin is the name of the core of the mac os, that is based on freeBSD.
within the macos layer, a few custom things run over it. gnu-darwin is a
project to port darwin to intel. anyone on this list who is using
gnu-darwin on an intel? i'd love to hear your comments on this list.
many projects that work under linux have been ported successfully to
gnu-darwin.

finally, for your device-fetish, apple just released the powerpod, that
is really a pda, with a 'portable macos'. i bet 50 paise (with myself)
that once this device is out, someone is going to hack it and install
linux on it.
