upgrading an old mac by [MR] on 06-10-2005 at 02:50 AM

hey i have an old mac preforma 450 that i dont really use that much any more but anyways i was wondering if there is a compatable version of linux for my mac to download.  tell me if there is or isnt b/c im just trying to find a way to upgrade it some how so i can do more things with it and to try different OS's on a computer that wont matter if i mess things up on it.
