Btw, as an hp employee I hope you'll forgive me for tooting the hp horn a little bit... I know there are other companies donating resources and I'm not trying to one-up them. In addition to the equipment hp has lent, part of my job description is to "work on Gentoo". No strings attached, no agenda. This is viewed as positive community involvement by the hp Open Source and Linux Org. I spend *at least* 1/3 of my time working on Gentoo. Without getting into a salary discussion, that's hp donating tens of thousands of dollars per year. Now whether you all consider my involvement to be worth that much is a different matter, of course. No comments from the peanut gallery, please. ;-) Regards, Aron -- Aron Griffis Gentoo Linux Developer
