Now the Macintosh Linux is out.
Available from http://mklinux.apple.com - It is based on the Mach kernel
3.0, and in some areas it is faster than the stand-alone unix (Virtual
Memory as an example).

Currently it is kernel 1.2.13, with 1.3.58 version of all the utilities.

Some people suggested that instead of rolling this into the kernel, they
would wait until a non-Mach version was available. I do NOT think so. In my
opinion, it should be included in the kernel tree as soon as it is declared
working, but of course, it should not delay 2.0.
