gcc on PowerPC

So I'm hoping to compile some programs on my MacMini, which is a PowerPC not Intel... I can't find gcc or make anywhere... they are near identical:

MacMini Mac OS X 10.4.10
Darwin Kernel Version 8.10.0: Wed May 23 16:50:59 PDT 2007; root:xnu-792.21.3~1/RELEASE_PPC Power Macintosh powerpc

MacBook Mac OS X 10.4.10
Darwin Kernel Version 8.10.1: Wed May 23 16:33:00 PDT 2007; root:xnu-792.22.5~1/RELEASE_I386 i386 i386

Anyway, I found out that you can download the developer tool kit from 'ADC' - Apple Developer Connection website, but I need to register... so done that and downloaded the latest Xcode Tools and I am installing it now...

Done, and hey presto... gcc and make is there!
