   greetings all,

   i have a question to ask on behalf of a friend, he is competent in unix (the
   one that was called isc v4 and teh whateverits called now, was sco v5ish, as
   well as a smattering of (linux toys, his words) and vms development stufff).

   the question that i was asked revolved around setting up  'the freebsd kernel
   on a multi cpu powerpc box' .. i wasn't sure if he was asking about
   tiger/leopard on a apple g5 box or building a freebsd powerpc box ??

   also, i'm looking at doing much the same thing, that is to setup a multimedia
   desktop and as far as i can see that means going to apple software but i am not
   sure what kind of hardware to run underneath

   is anybody here (in bugs) using apple ahrdware freebsd based tiger/leopard in a
   more or less deadline based environments ?? muchcly appreciated by yours treuly
   and a mr mark...
   
   i suppose that i am asking are they as good as they are claimed to ne

   most kind regards

   jonathan
