- Since some people expressed concern over busybox donations, let me
- assure you that no one is getting rich here. All busybox and
- uclibc donations will be spent paying for bandwidth, and paying for

- of memory -- I'm going to be ordering 256Megs of ram and a larger
- hard drive for the box today). As demonstrated when google
- spidered the site the other day, 64 Megs in not enough...
- So far, donations received have been sufficient to cover
- almost all expenses. A <b>HUGE thank-you</b> goes out to everyone
