True, but there is a developer release at OTN for Linux/PPC. IBM is 
selling Linux blades with PPC and some people have succeed in 
installing it in Macs (with Linux) as well. Also there is going to be a 
seminar Apple/Oracle on June 10 and both Oracle and Sybase have 
sessions on the agenda of Apple WWDC in June (Sybase is in production 
in Macs for some years now).
