So I now have 10 of these machines to dedicate to various OS
installed for automated Pd builds:
http://h18002.www1.hp.com/products/quickspecs/10023_div/10023_div.HTML
They are P-III 700s, mostly with 128 MB of RAM. If anyone has any
PC100 or PC133 RAM, 64MB, 128MB, or 256MB chips they want to donate
to this cause, I will gladly accept donations. You can just mail
them to me.
I just installed Debian on two of them, one will be running stable
and the other testing (or does it make more sense to run
unstable?). I will also install Windows 2000 on one, and perhaps
WinXP. I was thinking of installing Ubuntu and Fedora Core on two
others since people expressed interest in working on them. I also
have two PowerMac G3s running nothing and a PowerMac G4 running
10.3.9 to add to the mix.
If anyone is serious about maintaining Pd on any free OS, I will
happily install that OS, provided its not time consuming. Then I
will give shell access too. Ideally, each one of these machines will
run an auto-build for that platform.
Its install-o-rama time... and my laptop is on the fritz, so I'll be
working on that too. I'll gladly accept donations of a MacBook,
provided that you've ripped the Treacherous Computing hardware out of
it ;).

Does this comment refer to the Digital Rights Management that comes pre-installed ?
If so, can any viewers of this list point to a source of information on this ?
I may just get you one Hans...

Yes. However, FSF.org recommends that it gets called Digital Restriction Management.
DRM is form of preinstalled rootkit built into the hardware. The point is that the media cartel has a monopoly on abusing artists and as such doesn't tolerate anyone else abusing artists.
Read what Trey Gunn had to say about abusing artists, at http://www.disciplineglobalmobile.com/foundingaims.shtml by searching for the words "real record company", and then reading from that point.
