All very informative, thanks! One small footnote : the
interfaces, at least between YDL and Fedora, are quite different,
or were in the years I ran them (on a G3 laptop).
YDL sets out to be as much like the standard Apple
interface as possible, and the manual is written for people
coming from that. Fedora.ppc looks and behaves just like regular
Fedora.
