Mac PPC

[Richmond Mathewson]

It never ceases to amaze me how I manage to run the latest LC release 
via Xubuntu
on a Pentium IV that is significantly older than my MacMini PPC and that 
is significantly
older than my Polycarbonate Intel iMac:

I am running LC 9 dp 6 on the Pentium IV . . . .

admittedly this says buckets about Apple's policy of forcing hardware 
upgrades by
messing around with both their OS and their hardware and nothing about 
LiveCode.

This really does say something very positive indeed about Linux.
