Hi,
Looks like FreeBSD/powerpc is getting some new bells :)

Quite excited by the Power8 hardware though the it's beyond my toy
budget & the shipping of these dev systems being the buyers
responsibility means it'll be a while before I get to play with one.

It's funny how things change, the SPARC is now completely closed (though
the OpenSPARC cores for the T1 & T2 are still available) & POWER is now
opening up.

I Wonder if OpenAIX is on the cards?
