Let me ensure you that there is no sarcasm whatsoever in my statement. If I had the chance to get hold of a POWER6, 7, Wii-U, or PS3 I would be just as interested as Strobl is in SPARC64 machines. I am very much aware of Marius's programming ability because he has helped me a few times. I, for one, was glad that he popped up in the thread. I have equipment that I offered to give away yet no one dared to take me up on it.

You make a very very shitty assumption here. Let me inform you that anything given to me- as far as hardware goes- is used to fix other peoples' equipment and then is given away. > > It's comments like this that demotivate me from working on FreeBSD. If my comment and your ignorance of the reasons for me making the comment demotivate you from working on FreeBSD, then you have an fragile ego. You can accept what I wrote or you can reject it. If you want an apology, then ask for it. Don't even make the assumption that I am replying to cover my own ass. I know what Marius can do and I understand very much why he would be interested in it. I also understand what it is like to have equipment to work on that is a step or so above what was previously used. I am very much aware of the excitement that comes from starting a porting project and I can understand what it would be like to actually finish a project. > > mcl
