What version of Linux? What Platform ? Full featured?

Don't kid yourselves about Oracle. Take it from someone who participates
on a Linux Mailing list also: There are countless versions of Linux out
there, running on every platform ever invented. Oracle would have to
release source code ( ha ha) to be a true linux port. I run LinuxPPC on
a power mac, and if they port to this then I will eat a huge plate of
crow.
