I'm pretty impressed that the Power Mac port of Linux is using the Mach 3.0 kernel. I would love to see Linux ported to other Power PC architectures. My wife uses a Motorola PowerStack at work (running NT zannen) and she claims that it gives really good performance. Since the source code will be publically available, a port to the PowerStack should happen in the near future. I've really found the Macs lacking in many areas and avoid them whenever possible, but an Apple sponsored Linux port makes me think that there is some hope for Apple after all. Perhaps they are remembering their grassroots beginnings??? For all the flack I give the Mac, I have to admit that the way the toolbox forces programmers to conform to certain menu conventions gives the Mac a more unified feel across applications.
