Sorry to spoil all of your fun [if Jesus Madroy-bashing still counts as fun], but I have yet to see a reply to the original poster's question. Yes, I am interested in this project, especially since I have recently heard that there are Taiwanese Power-PC boards being designed to be compatible with the PC clone form factor. Ie they fit in the same cases, use PC-compatible keyboards, etc. Unfortunately, I don't have the means to participate in porting NetBSD to the Power PC architecture. But I am still interested in hearing about any progress.
