Takashi Oe and friends have done wonders with nubus PowerMac.

go to the nubus homepage              http://nubus-pmac.sourceforge.net/




I've got a 7100/66 running  Debian 2.2r3 and it is very stable doing things 
like Zope and icecast.
Not so stable with other stuff (G3 newertech works, Sonnet G3 cards don't)
. Join or research the linuxppc-nubus mailing list.


I'm waiting on some parts so I can start turning pmac7100 into an IRfilter.
 (Human + IRremoteControl sends one code out, nubus-pmac receives and sends 
out as many IR signals as necessary to set a pile of AV equipment to watch 
the SatelliteFeed, or listen to radio, or ...)

Current performance suggests I should be able to turn it into an 
MP3jukeboxAppliance as well.
My few performance problems are more likely my lack of knowledge rather 
than lack of processor power.
