No, that's Open Genera on G5
We're overdue for a Lisp related posting, so here we go:
Lispmeister is a new Lisp related blog that reported that some folks at ILC were trying to convince Howard Shrobe to open source Open Genera, the version of the Symbolics environment that runs on Alpha. These folks were all excited about a port of Open Genera to AMD Opteron or Athlon64. But what about PowerPC 970? All those G5 owners are just Lisp Machines waiting to be booted.

What is Mac OS X?
Everybody's been pointing out Amit Singh's excellent article
What is Mac OS X?. It's interesting to note that Amit's resume says that he's working on Linux on the desktop at IBM Almaden. Certainly lends credence to the supposed IBM memo that says they are moving the whole company to desktop Linux by the end of 2005.
