+NetBSD/macppc \*V runs on PCI-based Power Macs and several compatibles.
+The minimal configuration requires 4M of RAM and ~80M of disk space.
+To install the entire system requires much more disk space, and to run
+X or compile the system, more RAM is recommended.  (NetBSD with 4M of
+RAM feels like Solaris with 4M of RAM.) Note that until you have
+around 16M of RAM, getting more RAM is more important than getting a
+faster CPU.)
