Dern it! I thought we had a toe in the door. Doesn't mean it wouldn't be 
a good place to start.

Who says WE can't?? I have an ATX case I'll donate. The entire 
membership must have enough hardware to finish it. If we need something 
nobody has, we can take up a collection. That would make a piddly amount 
for any one of us, even me. Choosing a distro might cause a small flame 
war, but if we define our requirements carefully, we should be able to 
narrow it down to 2 or 3. If we get a big enough HD, put 2 to 4 distros 
on it. That might help make peace. And a good demo, besides.
