I have an alpha station 200 4/233 presently on the net via full t1 2 hops
off of alternet running FreeBSD 3.0-CURRENT #18: Fri Sep 18 11:58:00, and
would be happy to provide access to those in the FreeBSD Mozilla project
wishing to use this machine.

I know that this is an old build, I'd be willing to spend enough time to
get it up to the lattest build.
