I'd like it better if I knew the root password, and I prefer IceWM to Gnome. But I do like the idea; people should know just how superior Linux is. \:D/

Did you notice that if you open a terminal, and look at top or ps -A, there is no X running? LOL!

There are instructions to be found by doing a simple google search. Actually obtaining an x86 build of OSX, on the other hand, well........ you either have to be a developer, or know your way around certain shall we say shadier parts of the web.

Yeah I know there was something out their in the shadows, I never took the time to look. I didn't know there were such things as x86 builds of OS X. That is very interesting, and I might endeavor to search and apply it to my computer... :D:D

Apparently Apple has had one working for years, in preparation to switch to the x86 architecture in the next few years. According to test results, high end PC can run it way faster than any G5. So fast, in fact, that it can actually emulate a G5 at full G5 speeds.

Doubtful. It's compiled for the x86 architecture. You may be able to find a PowerPC distro, though.
