I feel pretty sure, Jimen, that if you do a search on slashdot for some 
relevant strings you will find a lot of info about building ppc systems 
without involving Apple.  There seems to be a thread every few weeks about do 
it yourself ppc kits and projects.  One within the last two weeks discussed, 
I believe, a young company selling ppc boxen.  Yellowdog linux will sell you 
a mac-free ppc server running linux.
