> Or just dump the mac and get a real machine, like a Linux/BSD box.. :)
About four months ago, I installed Linux PPC on a Mac at work because I
needed a code development environment and I cut my teeth on C in UNIX back
when large hairdoos, legwarmers, and spandex were required attaire for the
female portion of the in-crowd. After about one full week of work, I
managed to get it to boot successfully (it no longer does).
The whole experience was like learning fine woodworking by being handed two
acorns.
