    I believe that this stuff is all running refurbished Apple hardware, which means it should be legal to install your own version of OS X (if you have an aditional license lying around).

    Or if you just don't even want to worry about that, there is always PPC Linux.

    Has anybody had access to Core Crib's website? (http://www.2khappyware.com/corecrib.html)
    Ever since the Wired article appeared, I have tried to access the website. Nothing. Google's cache only lists www.2khappyware.com, which is PC-centric and talks about some sort of PC-upgrade pay-per-month program (websites looks like done in Notepad or TexteEdit).

    Looks like one big hoax to me. I hope I'm wrong, I'm really looking forward to buying a dirt cheap G4 (or even G3) system to host my 1-hit-a-year webpage and file server :)

    Has the guy talked about sales outside the U.S. (France, for that matter)?
