    Hi Joris,

    Sorry about the job. If you are looking for a low cost powerpc linux setup
    you could try a 2nd hand mac and try install mklinux (Linux on top of Mach
    microkernel) for example. A 2nd hand powermac 7300 say capable of doing
    this costs about $25 in Australia. It might give you something to do
    in-between job interviews!

    Regards,

    Shaun
