I (personally) think it would be better to set David up with his own. I think the more FreeBSD'ers have their own machines to work on, the faster we'll see progress on PPC. And I'm sure David would finds ways to put one to good use. >I am also happy to contribute to the fund. [...] > >I can put up to $250 US into the fund if others are willing to join >in. Can this go through the FreeBSD Foundation for tax purposes? I'm willing to contribute $150. Given the price of the Mac-Mini, it shouldn't take too many more contributions before we can get a decent configuration. -- Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@gilead.netel.rpi.edu Senior Systems Programmer or gad@freebsd.org Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute or drosih@rpi.edu
