Hey ppclers,

for a bunch of reasons we are in need of a new build machine as we used 
to have with hammurabi, may its soul rest in peace. Now that it is going 
to be used for other things by the owner Benoitc, we are looking into 
finding a new one. Thanks Benoit, for providing us with the service for 
so long!

Since most of us have iBooks and/or rather crappy internet uplinks or no 
direct access to PPC machines at all from home - like me at the moment - 
we are looking for a machine with specs similar to those:

G4 500mhz +
512MB RAM + (1G prefferred)
40GB HDD +

DSL/Cable connection of which we may use 128kbit/s upstream and it would 
be nice to have around 1mbit/s down.

The system has to be a install of base/ with openssh, apache & rsync. 
The rest is optional and will be set up by us. Maintainance is also done 
by the devs unless we really need hands on support.

Users on the machine will only be devs of archlinuxppc. Everytime there 
is going to be a new account, we will contact you.


In return we cannot to much but mention you or your company on our 
website. This is a no-budget project after all. :)


Thanks for paying attention to all safety instructions. We hope you 
enjoyed the flight.
