Z krainy miłości (Loveland, Colorado) przyszła do nas wiadomość, że pojawiła się nowa wersja Yellow Dog Linuksa – dystrybucji przeznaczonej na komputery z procesorem PowerPC (m.in. makówki).
Zawartość: gcc 3.2.1, KDE 3.1, GNOME 2.2, XFree86 4.3.
Ciekawostką jest MOL (Mac-On-Linux) – oprogramowanie umożliwiające odpalenie MacOSa na komputerze z procesorem PowerPC. Sam na swoim biurku gościłem kilka dni temu ten system operacyjny – dzięki MOLowi uruchomiliśmy go na serwerze IBMa (RS 6000). Działa wszystko, łącznie z MS Office i Internet Explorerem. A wszystko pod kontrolą Linuksa.
Loveland, Colorado -- 19 March 2003 -- Terra Soft Solutions, Inc., the leading developer of integrated PowerPC Linux Solutions, today announced an amazing upgrade to the Company's flagship product Yellow Dog Linux. Code-named Sirius, Yellow Dog Linux version 3.0 represents a new generation of Linux for the PowerPC architecture. Featuring the ultra-modern gcc 3.2.1 compiler, Yellow Dog 3.0 offers a powerful new foundation for code development.

Daniel Burcaw, Chief Technology Officer of Terra Soft states, "Developing Yellow Dog is hard work. It involves immense effort by our dedicated staff. Throughout development, we remain focused on our customers and what they desire. It is their feedback, their discoveries that makes it all worth while."
