[ale] Linux on PPC

So, are any of you doing any Linux on PowerPC?  Someone gave me an old 2Ghz PowerMac G5 (one of the big full tower aluminum ones that was about $3000+ back when it was new), with 3 GB of memory, and a 1TB hard drive.  It works great/has nothing wrong with it - not even a scratch on the exterior.  It looks like Debian or Yellowdog seem to be the main options for PPC these days...  this thing may be my weekend experiment :)
