I know a lot of people have been talking on this list about Sony's PS3 and ppc linux after the YellowDog announcement and all...I have also been doing some reading about Nintendo's new Wii console.

Looks like it has 512mb ram -- USB slots - A DVD -- and is already running some Nintendo customized form of linux on the ppc based Broadway CPU. It will apparently use Opera for its web browser...What I cannot seem to determine from the info available is whether the Linux it uses is locked down in some form -- like it is on Tivo or the Linksys WRT Wireless routers. I also have not been able to find out whether it actually has a hard drive or not...I know that a usb hd could be hooked to it...

Does anybody have plans to try fedora ppc on the Nintendo Wii?? It does appear to be closer to a generic ppc computer from the specs and from what I have been able to gather about it...
