Join the PPC-mailing list, albeit there hasn't been any volume on it for the past months.... And I haven't looked deeper into using my PPC box (Apple 8600, PPC 604e) as a server/firewall for my home, as well as a development box for PPC targets in various OSes. What about you ?? Have you found any interesting tidbits of info ?? thanks, chris lists@vivdev.com _____________________________________________ /"\ ASCII Ribbon campaign against E-Mail \ / in gratuitous HTML and Microsoft X proprietary formats. / \ Post no attachments to the lists! _______________________________________________ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ppc" in the body of the message
