Er, any special reason? Is SuSE PPC support winding down, or just 
skipping a version?

I hope it doesn't get wound down - SuSE PPC is *nice* - even if I did 
need to build my own Mozilla and still can't get sensible OS-choosing at 
boot functionality.

... talking of which, I'd be happy with a little utility or something 
that can set the Startup disk setting in open firmware (presumably) so 
we can choose to reboot into MacOS without having a Mac OS installation 
CD to hand. :-)
