Well, let me put it this way -- my 7100 (the one I attempted mkLinux on)
is now banished to OS 9 and acting as an AppleTalk server for the old Macs
that have trouble speaking to the Panther file server.

NetBSD is very nice on the 68ks and the PCI PPCs, and Linux runs better on
the PCI PPCs also, like a 7200 or 73-75-7600. A 6100 is not a bad unit,
but they aren't my favourite Mac if you intend to run something other than
Mac OS.
