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).
