How about PPC 603, 603e, 604 and 604e? there are still a lot of Umax and BeBox Machines around...
With fined tuned system that Gentoo GNU/Linux distro is practicing we shouldn't lose all those Pentium boxes
(which love beying media juxeboxes for .mpg, .mp3 and .ogg files ;)

Took it upon myself to add some more stuff to this list, which I found sadly lacking some obvious items (and sparc is questionable imho.)
Memson.
I'd love to see BeOS running natively on my iBook G4, and not inside Virtual PC (tortoise speed).
The problem with G3 (and later) motherboards is driver or kernel related? Something that can't be done without source code? (gmiranda)
