[...] Looking at who's participating in OpenPOWER, I think it's mostly servers now. (There are still low-end PowerPC chips going into embedded systems, but I don't believe Debian has ever supported them. We require Open Firmware.) It looks like a lot of those are custom- made for large HPC and cloud customers, but Tyan has some that are generally available, like this: http://www.tyan.com/campaign/openpower/ There are some PowerPC systems available for remote use by developers: http://developers.openpowerfoundation.org/explore Ben. -- Ben Hutchings Any sufficiently advanced bug is indistinguishable from a feature.
