"A friend of mine phoned to ask if I thought he should install Ubuntu Linux on his Macs - a 1.33 GHz G4 iBook currently running OS X 10.4 Tiger and a 1.25 GHz Power Mac G4 tower with OS X 10.3 Panther installed. My friend had read a feature in the local newspaper extolling the virtues of Ubuntu Linux and thought it sounded interesting. Does Ubuntu Linux make any sense for Macintosh users? In my friend's case, I would say no, and I did." My take: I wrote about this subject earlier.

from OS 9.1 to Debian etch as OSX was a catastrophe on my 512MB, 450Ghz G3 PowerMac. The machine runs pretty well now. Linux is a valid alternative in cases such as mine, where the hardware has problems running OSX.
