If you want a full distribution, also check out Yellow Dog Linux.

Their <a href="http://www.yellowdoglinux.com/resources/ftp_mirrors.shtml">download</a> section has a nice simple list of where to get it, and the "supported machines" list covers iMac as well!

I haven't used Yellow Dog myself, however. Does anyone else use it? Is it a good, full featured Linux distribution?

Also, Neo, could this be added to the FAQ section? I just noticed there is no information for Mac systems...

NAME
update-bgoffice-dicts - automate updating of bgoffice dictionaries SYNOPSIS
update-bgoffice-dicts [option...] DESCRIPTION
update-bgoffice-dicts automates the downloading and updating of bgoffice dictionaries. It uses debconf(7) to ask the user which dictionaries to download, then invokes bgoffice-dict-download(1) to download them, and finaly extracts the files in the right directory, so that bgoffice can find them. The last part will fail unless update-bgoffice-dicts is run as root. OPTIONS
--no-ask Normally, debconf won't ask the questions that are already seen by the user. That behaviour is disabled by default, as it is quite useful to be able to change your dictionary selection when invoking update-bgoffice-dicts. If you want to simply re-download and unpack the dictionaries, based on a previously made selection, use that option. COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE
