I used it until 9.04 and it worked very well, many ppc-packages available and system updates always went clean. Regarding performance or memory consumption I couldnt tell a difference to Slackintosh. The only issue on my 1GHz G4: The system did freezes of 1-2s from time to time, which might be ubuntu-specific because I didn't experience that with Slackintosh. But besides that, no complains...
