Who is this bill_c?  I've never heard of him, and I might like to meet that fella. :)

I'm likely rolling out a hundred or so PowerMac5500 machines next year as thick clients, and want to make the install/boot process as slim and reproducible as possible.  (In fact, debian is installing on one in front of me right now...)

There are a few issues I'd really like to talk to such a person about, like remote flash, sound, and accelerated video.  (These little beauties have nice ati mach64 chipsets)
