This is something I'd be interested in: Making a 501(c) (tax-deductible) contribution towards this goal. Is there a way to make this happen? Can the FSF get involved in this somehow? (they have 501(c)(3) status).

Sorry to revive an old thread, but as many of you are aware Minifree (Leah Rowe) contracted with us to port the KCMA-D8 and release it. We performed this work and the KCMA-D8 continues to operate, however Minifree has decided not to pay their contract on this work. We strongly recommend that no person do any business with Minifree or its founder Leah Rowe, as they do not honor their legally binding contracts.

They are the only retail vendor that sells ready to go libre coreboot computers I imagine a lot of people buy from them...
We are offering at least the desktop, workstation, and server variants now:

Those proceeds do go to development of libre systems, so perhaps at least US customers can now purchase straight from the development vendor (Raptor) instead of a third party. I don't expect much uptake but it is an option at least, and we do bring experience on the server side that was not present with the other vendor.

Nice. It might be prudent to create a web-store where people can purchase via credit card etc, a lot of people are incredibly lazy slash antisocial and don't wish to call for a quote.
