I agree for many aspects with Lars and Jonathan. At least cd boot and installation should work out of the box. Several years ago i had an option to get a nice intel based powerbook for very cheap but i renounced because of the - at that time - keyboard hassle (german keyb here).
Anyway, just a question: Would Debian or other distros be better (for ppc)? As far as i understood the radeon & nvidia problems are kernel related, or am i wrong?
