This beast is supposedly able to run MAC and IBM stuff simultaneously, so what I'm wondering is what the chances are of getting one of the *BSD's on it. Has anyone used one of these things? I know NetBSD works on the MAC, but I think only the 68k variety. Is this true? -- Jeff Aitken jaitken@vt.edu
