I'd hoped with fewer machines and older (well documented machines), it might work out. With no Chrome and no current Flash, I'm not inclined to try another distribution. Beyond those limitations, OSX is tough to beat. I’m afraid the developer pool for PPC Macs is just not that large, and it’s probably drying up rapidly.

I think about posting occasionally, but it'd be just more of my usual drivel, only expanded more than what I post on FB. Maybe we'll have to make an effort to write something here? It's especially nice for more momentous occasions, like holidays, vacations, etc. You're right, Larry. We'll have to think about it. Thanks for your input, Jeff--does your interest include even boring ol' day-to-day garbage? I didn’t know anyone read this anymore.

I check FB and it is nice to keep abreast of day-to-day minutiae, but this site makes for a nice leisurely read without the excess "noise". That's my two cents...
