Guy:

FreeBSD is primarily available for Intel and Dec Alpha platforms, with ports
to some other architectures in various stages of progress:
http://www.freebsd.org/platforms/

If you are keen to run a BSD version other than Darwin on your Mac, you
might want to check out NetBSD: http://www.netbsd.org/

Cheers,

Barry
