I ran Yellowdog linux on older Macs. As mdnky pointed out, which desktop you prefer is just that a preference. I actually used both of them interchangeably, which made using Linux fun. Not being extremely techy, my experience with Linux, whether it be on PPC or Intel, was buggy to say the least. Configuring the video driver always presented trouble for me. After hours of experimenting, I would get it to work. That has been my experience with Linux, on either platform. Linux, in my opinion takes times and patience to get it perfect.
As far as PC companies supporting two OS. I believe HP released or is going to release a laptop with winblows and Linux.
