If I understand you correctly, how hard is it to get a
Mac to run TDE?
I know they're both based on Unix.
Any new world PowerMac(iMac and newer and Powerbook G3 Lombard and
newer) can run Linux or NetBSD easily. You just need a PowerPC
specific port. Debian's is very good. Fedora had a recent PowerMac
port as well. I've run Linux on Old World macs as well like the
PowerMac 9600 but they are not really viable machines any more. G4s &
newer are very usable tho.
Running TDE requires it be recompiled and tested on Mac PowerPC hardware.
Any intel Mac can use the x86/x64 ports so there isn't anything extra needed.
I have been hoping to have time to test it on my iBook Clamshell but
haven't had time......
