	Unfortunately, there aren't a whole lot of choices,
	but I think YellowDog Linux is still the best option
	for Mac/PPC systems.  You should be aware, though,
	that it's geared more toward the new G3/G4 hardware
	than it is toward the older Performa and PowerMac
	systems.  It should still work, but if you've got
	any 3rd-party peripherals you shouldn't necessarily
	count on them being supported.
