Stupid question: Is this just a matter of "donated machine" or is it more than that (bandwidth) too? Would another machine next door to freefall be a valid approach? In particular, freely speaking for some of us (:-), I'd say many of us would be willing to chip in, say, $20 to $100 (each!) towards a dedicated machine. Would this approach work to give freefall a buddy? jdl
