Hello:
I was wondering why there is no PPC version of Edubuntu?
Here in the US, older PPC apple iMacs(G3 processors running at 400-500mhz)
are very inexpensive, there all in one design keeps deployment costs
affordable, and they are just great machines.
My current task is putting together a computer training lab deploying the
iMacs and am frustrated that I cannot offer Edubuntu as one of the Linux
components.
Having a PPC version would greatly expand the affordability of bridging the
digital divide and providing for needed service to many minority students.
