Anthony: ... you could always use LinuxPPC.

Alain: Does LinuxPPC require MacOS-X ?

MP0werd: No

Alain: Does LinuxPPC run with MacOS 8.6.1 or 9 ?

MP0werd: It's not OS dependent, it's a completely different OS.

Alain: Is LinuxPPC palatable to someone brought up
with the MacOS? Is it as dweeby as UNIX?

MP0werd: Umn, I resent the idea the "dweeby as UNIX" is bad. I rather like 
the CLI on my linuxppc box. The macOS should have some way to pipe stuff 
without applescript. Maybe a little window that you drop applications onto to 
form a pipe and then press execute, ah, I'm rambling.

Alain: Most important of all, does LinuxPPC REALLY
work? Stable, fast, reliable, easy to fix ... Is it
... The Holy Grail?

MP0werd: I think so, it was a snap to setup and use for me, unfortunately, I 
couldn't do much because with my #@$@ AOHell connection, I can't put my linux 
box on the net. My hard drive that I have it on is 250 MBs, just enough for 
the core utilities, basic networking, and KDE. Maybe I should get rid of KDE 
and put C/C++ on.
