Lagging PowerPC port problem

"Goes back a while actually. The real reason that the PowerPC port is lagging is that it has one developer."
That problem takes care of itself. Once the developer has a complete version, it means that 1/3 of all the PowerPC users will already have the *BSD port. It will be a simple matter for him to give it to the other two.

Dead? Thats funny. I'm using it right now to reply to your post. Seems plenty alive to me. Honestly...some of you Linux zealots are just as bad as the windows people. They all say "if it's not Windows I'm not using it!" In come the Linux zealots, the open source mirror image of the thing they despise, to proclaim "If it's not Linux...it's dead." Bah. You remind me of a bunch of shorts on the NASDAQ floor.

I like to view Linux zealots as the little children playing soldier in a sandbox, "You're Dead!" "No I'm not dead, I'm superman!" "No! I am superman"...If you dont know what I'm referring to, Linux people are the only ones who refer that their OS is the best in the world and nothing can top it:)
