Linux/ UN*X both install pretty well on the S900/Pulsar machines. However, if it has the original IMS (a.k.a. IXMicro) TwinTurbo video card, get a new card. I was able to only get MKLinux to run XWindows with that thing in it. When Linux PPC was around, it was supposed to support the TwinTurbo, but I could never even get the installer CD to boot. Yellow Dog Linux installed like charm, although I did have to diable the video drivers for the TwinTurbo. That damn card seemed to be one item that gave me trouble. Then again, if I had been able to use it properly, I wouldn't be on OS 10.2 now......maybe I should be thankful :)
