They've actually renamed the project to plex86 and can be found at
http://www.plex86.org/ I saw Kevin Lawton do a brief presentation on this
at last year's Linux Expo -- it stems from his work with his Bochs
product.  MandrakeSoft just purchased Bochs and hired Kevin.  The source
for Bochs has been available all along, although you were supposed to pay
to use it for commercial purposes.  It's a more complete emulation than
VMware or plex86 so you can use it to run NT on your Mac, but it's
apparently too slow to be really usable.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to trying plex86 -- so many toys, so little
time!
