I hear you can TFTP boot modern Macs, at least into Linux.

For quite some time. They use the same ... uhhh ... boot loaders (?) that Suns do -- OpenBoot/Open Firmware, which is described in IEEE 1275. (It's really so much more than a boot loader, but I have no better term right now.)

You can get into it on (I think) any modern Apple system by holding down Command-Option-O-F during poweron. OF for OpenFirmware, IIRC. Or maybe it's Command-Option-O-B? Something like that, at any rate.
