What!? PPC takes priority!? I thought you didn't want to support obscure architectures! I just came from a 5-day computer-geek conference at which I only saw 1 Mac (with OSX) and talk of Macs didn't really come up. Everyone was talking about Windows on Pentium-class machines, though there were some groups discussing linux and using linux server-side (mostly RH). (actually, one guy won a prize because he has an XT machine with MS-DOS 3.2 actually doing some useful work at his organization) In fact, the last Mac I used was a Mac Classic and one that looked like it but had COLOR. That was in 8th grade, in 1993. They weren't even PPC! If you want to support PPC, then I think you'll have to concede and allow people to support HPPA, IA64, s390 and every other arch they want. -D -- "...the word HACK is used as a verb to indicate a massive amount of nerd-like effort." -Harley Hahn, A Student's Guide to Unix GnuPG key : http://dman.ddts.net/~dman/public_key.gpg
