TalkBack / RE:Linux on GameCube?

if thats ur view shin, then thats ok. no one can change it for u, and i'm not going to try to either
i really can't wait. i've got a computer that only just lets me do some basics and the most advanced game i can run on it is the sims (doesn't go well tho, mind u). with linux on gc i'll b able to play heaps better games. just d/l a patch for halo and i can play it on the gc, same for UT and many more (i'd love to get online, go into a UT room w/ x-box players and tell them that i'm playing from a gc, hehe)
when linux for x-box was announced, my dad wanted me to ditch the gc and get an x-box just so he could run linux on it (he already has it running on many of the computers in the house). now that its on gc, i'm sure he'll b able to go out and buy his own gc to play around with

does ne one know what the other serial port is used for? the GBP uses the high speed, the LAN adapter uses a serial port which leaves one left with no products announced for it. could the GC Linux team (or someone else) somehow find a way to connect this port to an external hard drive?
having a LAN adapter is gonna play a crucial role in running linux and its apps on ur gc, esp since the team mention servers quite a bit

i wonder what distro the GC linux will b with. the x-box had mandrake, will the gc b aligned w/ mandrake as well, or could we see lindows on our purple cubes?

oh well, enough pants wetting for me
