And it is open source. Take a look at www.darwin.org At the moment Darwin is available for PowerPC ala Apple and x86. Darwin is the core of Mac OS X without all the nice graphic stuff. But you can run X windows on top of it. Have fun Marc __________________________________________________________________ Gesendet von Yahoo!
