7 I think there are a few things that we should look at adjusting in there now
8 that I look at things though. There are definately more apps that can be
9 masked (which just plain don't run on ppc) like vmware-workstation stuffs,
10 wine, etc. Have actually had a couple users in #gentoo-ppc ask why they
11 couldn't get vmware working after they emerged it on their ppc's ;)

13 If we look harder I imagine there are more apps that are x86 only as well.
