 Another Look at Yellow Dog Linux
With YDL, Installation is a fairly straightforward process, requiring partition of your hard disk, followed by installation of the Mac OS, and finally installation of Linux, which, thankfully, is now a fully graphical experience and not much more taxing than installing the Mac OS itself.

If you're in the market for Linux, YDL is an excellent choice, but if your machine can handle, it you'd be better of with Mac OS X, as using Linux means kissing good-bye to all of you favourite application programs.
