Hi list,

myself in need to build some big, phat machines (8GByte, or even
16GByte RAM) for a customer that run OpenBSD *and* having seen (again) a
discussion on 'how much RAM is supported' [0] I decided to

i) write this email to see if there's more people interested in having
the ability to address more RAM running OpenBSD;

ii) just sent my donation to the project.

- From 'want.html' [1]:

An amd64 with more than 4 GB RAM for hacking on large memory support in
i386 and amd64, needed in London, UK. Contact tom@openbsd.org.

AMD64 or EM64T machine with 8GB+ of RAM (or $1700 to buy one) needed in
Edmonton. Contact weingart@openbsd.org.

So it'd be nice to reach $1700 (or more, obviously ;)...

Anyone?
