You really should take a serious look at Debian, 
<http://www.debian.org/>.

YDL 3.0.1 most has not gotten any security updates since the folks at 
Terrasoft started working on 4.0, and I don't expect the future to be 
any different.  Maybe more important, the versions available from YDL 
of OpenOffice.org, Evolution, Mozilla, whatever are woefully out of 
date.  The Debian folks do a much better job of keeping up with 
security updates, and there is a a new release with the latest apps 
coming very soon that *will* support OldWorld PowerPC Macs.

FreshRPMs at <http://freshrpms.net/> has some of the updated software 
you will need if you decide to stick with YellowDog.
