Hey everyone!

Alright, thank you all for the information! I guess it's time for me
to start learning powerpc assembly! Should not be too bad... I have a
few tricks up my sleeve still :D I *think* this is one of those
architectures that offers backward compatibility with their 32 bit
versions - I'll' try to learn the 64 bit version first though, but may
end up "cheating" and just doing the older 32 bit.

Thank you!
