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.

That is sad, I guess she really went off the deep end what an awful thing to screw you guys over like that I despise customers that don't pay....after being burned a few times I now always get money up front for any consulting work over $300
This should be publicized more. 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.
