Introduction
A few months ago I decided to get a powerbook g4 for a few different reasons. Namely, the quality and speed of the architecture, the crisp widescreen 15.2" display, slot-loading dvd drive, and all of the other built in features that they managed to fit in a 1" thick titanium cased laptop. I, myself, am not too much of a mac person, but I really wanted some variation from the normal x86 architecture and compatible hardware.
Operating Systems
I tried a bunch of different operating systems. On my first attempt back in August, I decided that linux was the best choice, since at the time it had the best support. However, recently due to all of the great development work in the *bsd's, I've switched to openbsd. Openbsd is lacking in support in some areas, but I personally prefer it over netbsd, even though netbsd has better support. Here's some pointers on how to get your tibook setup with linux or openbsd.
