After further inspection in the pile I found a couple
of LC575's, some
Centris box's, and a couple of power PC's 6100/60. Looks like the 575's
have ethernet as well. How well do these machines run NetBSD?
The x100 PPC series won't run NetBSD due to the Nubus architecture as well as
the lack of "open firmware".
As for the 68k Macs, they could probably run NetBSD a lot better if there were
sufficient hardware documentation. There's nothing wrong with the software,
but the presentation could be better. There's still only monochrome video and
no sound.
If the Centrises are 610s, they probably need to have the LC040 CPU replaced
with a full '040 with integrated FPU. The 650 already has got a rather speedy
'040.

like awk, but not. etc.)
Guilty as charged. Perl is happily ugly, and happily
derivative.
