New PowerPC hardware from YDL

[trilobyte]

Hi everybody,

Yellow Dog Linux has a new PowerPC (G5-esque) workstation which they say is totally open.  Serial attached SCSI, dual ethernet, quad-core processor, and up to 32GB RAM.  Maybe somebody should donate one of these to Hyperion  :-D

Looks like a nice case too... reminds me of some recent IBM PC towers.

cheers,

No, you're not;  I cited that similarity in my original post  :roll:  :-D

Hardware being available, and hardware being available that's *new* and still supported by the manufacturer with some sort of warranty are two different things.  I'm under the impression that there is no hardware that is *new* and currently under manufacture which can run OS 4.  Maybe I'm wrong...
