I use a G3 iBook running Linux as my primary machine at work.  Linux just screams on a Mac.  I have used Yellowdog and found it to be a great distro.  However, I am not a big Red Hat fan and Yellow dog is based on Red Hat.

I instead use the PowerPC port of Debian.  I cannot rave about it enough.  Having that huge library of applications available through apt on Mac Debian is just awesome.  If you have never tried to build apps on a Mac Linux distro yet, you will find that it is not always an easy task as many have been designed around the x86 architecture and can require alot of tweaking...
