chris, sorry, i was too wasted to answer your other mail yesserday .. ;)
so, i think there's a pretty simple answer to you rsituation .. which is, if your budget allows for it, i d go and get a G3 schleppi, since you will be able to run both macos (also mac X server, and max and all the other nifty mac audio soft) as well as linuxppc, which i think should pretty much rock on a G3 and go for all the nifty linux nonsense soft (inclding pd and many free compilers) ;) just get yourself a HUGE hardrive with an intel thing, well, you get about the same power for half the price which of course also could eb worth considering .. and you could also run the beOS on it, but then, there's still not too much soft available, as i suppose (i m not too closely following it) and then, there's vmware, which looks like a pretty stable virtual pc software for linux.
well, so far for what i ve got to throw in. happy pondering. jodel.so
