Linux on the new Macbook

I'm writing this email using 64 bit Linux on my MacBook. I found the instructions here:

Took a while to get wireless working. For older MacBooks you can compile your own device driver. Easy, huh? My wireless chipset is not natively supported yet. I had to use a wrapper around the Windows driver.

Next step is to install BEA development tools. I found instructions here:

Downloading now (via wireless!). We'll see how it goes.
