I have a couple that aren't being used at the moment and could set one up running 6.2 easily. My only problem is that I'm going to be away from 6/13->6/27 or so and won't be able to physically touch the machine during that period. If it needs to be poked, prodded, kicked, or stroked, we'll be out of luck. It'll also be running in my basement and my outbound bandwidth isn't huge. I'm in Oakland, CA, and if you have offices in the Bay area I'd be happy to drop a machine off for you to use for a bit. Alternatively, maybe someone else on freebsd-emulation in the Bay area would be willing to host it for a bit. If it sounds like my machine would be helpful, let me know. g.
