Unfortunately I have nothing financial to help out, but I see this was the wrong time and wrong place. SORRY I don't know if a lot of big corps (meaning the "decision making part") is reading misc@, but if they do: IF YOU (big corp, small corp, rich guy) ARE USING OPENBSD AND YOU ARE TAKING ADVANTAGE OF ITS GREAT POSSIBILITIES, LOAN/DONATE BIG HARDWARE TO GIVE THE DEVS AT LEAST A LITTLE HAND FOR WHAT THEY GIVE TO YOU! Btw. they SHOULD know already, this was said many times over and over. Regards, ahb
