I mentioned it on current-users@netbsd.org.

Heh.  Close enough.

Anyway, at this point, I'm looking fairly seriously at trying to start
supporting NetBSD, including hardware sales; I even got the sales&use tax
paperwork for MN, so we could certainly build and sell systems, at this
point.  I don't quite have the rest of the details, I'm afraid; in an
optimistic case, we might be able to have a viable support group available
within a week or two.  The main issue is logistics and billing; there's
plenty of competent support techs.
