I have a Compaq ML370 Proliant server here which is likely to remain
unused for the foreseeable future. Some of its key specs are:

 - Dual 800MHz PIII/133MHz/256MB CPU
 - 1.25GB ECC Memory
 - 2 x 9G 10k SCSI-UW2
 - 1 x 18G 10k SCSI-UW2
 - 2 x Intel EtherExpress PRO/100 Ethernet

I've been contemplating the idea of offering it for remote access, to
those with a legitimate use for it in a FreeBSD-related development
endeavour. 

There are numerous aspects about this that warrant careful consideration
and for which I'll be seeking comment if it comes to it, however the
first question is: Is there any interest, or likely to be?


Thanks,

Wayne
