    yes. there are a couple of ppc distros out there. gentoo has a powerpc version and yellow dog linux is purely for mac hardware.

    although, osx is based off of the bsd kernel, so in the end, unless you're just a linux zealot i would keep osx.

    now, if you dislike osx, you could install any of the unix flavors...freebsd, openbsd, etc on it and it will run great.

    everything i've read about linux and unix on mac hardware says it's fantastic...a lot of hardcore geeks have converted to mac boxes to run linux and unix on because of the performance you get.
