| I have an old G3 500 iBook that I use almost every weekend when I'm away from home. It was something I inherited and unfortunately it's too low-spec to use exclusively, plus I've got years and years of email and other things on my PC, so I'm stuck with VNC for the time being. For a long time the iBook ran YellowDogLinux exclusively, but with the latest OS X (panther I guess), I've completely switched to OS X and I love it. However, for the reasons mentioned above, the iBook is mainly just a VNC thin-client. Nevertheless, I open and close it probably 30 times a day, and it stays on (w/out reboots) for weeks at a time, basically from update to update. That kind of rock-solid stability is unimaginable on my Windows machines. In fact, I've never had Panther crash or freeze on me in any way, and I don't baby that machine.
