Hmm...
	I just wrote a check for $20....  That makes it $1100+....  Are we
looking into getting a Cray?  Now, if you give out accounts on _that_ beast to
all the contributors, I'm sure we'll get a whole lot more donations! ;-) ;-)
	Ciao.

ps:  I still think we should look into getting CDs pressed every now and then,
even tho I don't have a CD drive.  Would make it very much better for the many
usergroups that have CD-ROM drives.  And if CD pressing are in the plans, I
think efforts should be made to Apple to get permission to include their stuff
(like those from developer CDs and the tech notes).  That will be _EXTREMELY_
useful.  One point in our favour is that this archive is set up by donations,
ie, we really like and appreciate this machine and the efforts of the Apple II
team at Apple Computer Inc, like it enough that many people are crazy enough to
send in money to people they've never met before! ;-) ;-)
