Actually, this has been done before:
Godzilla vs. Biollante, specifically.
In fact, it was actually *interesting* in that film, with one of the best G-suits ever, imho. Heck, there was even some reflection on the consequences of using such a thing. Similarly, for Godzilla vs. Destoroyah (1995), considering the aftermath of the Oxygen Destroyer and Serizawa's fears in Godzilla (1954/1955).
For current aspects of the original legend, see the real thing in its original home.
"thought you'd like to know"
MacOS X (aka Rhapsody, Son Of NeXT/OpenStep) running on one of those puppies...
Comparatively, the 64-bit port to another RISC should be pretty easy... right...? Please say yes... please... *drool* *drool* Heh, and then I woke up... If it was ever going to happen, though, I might sell my car to get my greedy hands on one...
Unless you're changing for ideological reasons (usually not the case in most business settings), stop while you're ahead, and stay with a BSD. As the nice man above says, FreeBSD most likely. Except for the very most bleeding-edge HW, it should run whatever x86 boxen you have, as nicely as Linux will. Naysayers will deny that, but I do know net shops that've moved from Linux to FreeBSD for more stability. I'll let the flamers and the benchmarkers decide that. If you switch between Linux and [Free|Net|Open]BSD, you're more liable to forget, say, where those config files are supposed to be, and more likely to have to re-work all your pet sKr1p+Z that make things happy, at least to a greater degree. Add an order of magnitude onto your usual config-change/upgrade odd behaviors. Sticking in the *BSD family, with FreeBSD for instance, will save you at least a bit of heartache. You're also perhaps less likely to be that lucky guy who finds the rare but deadly bug in 2.2.297.... Either way, you'll just have to resist the temptation to get the VERY latest gadgets for your server -- like, oh, say, umm, an SiS 6326 video card! %^*$%@#$!!! *ahem* Summary: 'Stick with the family, Vito'

And, of course, don't forget, Apple will be dead within a year!

Would this be the same French intelligence agencies that brought us the Maginot Line?
