a powerbook duo

adb keyboard & mouse

That's an interesting idea, but it would really only work in small groups. For instance, if all the UK member joined together and pooled resources, they could probably each have a very nice starter machine. Same for the Aus members and the US members. It's an interseting thought, although in some ways it could be somewhat prone to chaos...just take a look at this thread!  666th poster and 666th thread-creator

Yes, it would work in small groups... the problem is that we are not a corporation, and spanning national and international distances becomes costly. It would be cool though, an 840AV for every Soldier!  ~Coxy - Leader, Tactical Operations Unit
