While the main focus of OpenBSD/mac68k is on fast 68030 and 68040 machines, there has been a lot of work over the last 12-18 months to bring the mac68k port back in a very good shape. However, PowerBooks and systems with IDE disks are not being worked on, mainly because of a lack of hardware rather than because of a lack of interest (anyone got a spare PowerBook 550c ?). This does not mean they don't work to a decent level. As for ``old iron'' used on a mac... this sounds like an oxymoron to me (-: Miod
