[vtk-developers] Seeking volunteer to host old dashboard machines

If you can give a home, electricity and a wireless internet connection
to "mirkwood" or "carrock" (older machines runnings Windows XP), please
let me know.

I'm moving from a 4-bedroom house with a full basement to a 2-bedroom 
apartment with NO basement.... so my basement machines have to go to a 
new home or be retired/sold for scrap parts.

So, if you can save a dashboard machine, please reply to me directly, 
and we'll figure out a way to get one or both of them to you.

If you do host it, I would still be happy to take care of maintaining 
the dashboards on it, if you'll give me a port through your router to 
access the VNC servers running on them.

Also: I have two other OLD machines available for free to the first 
claimer: (1) I have an old laptop with a busted screen that "still 
works" if you plug it into a monitor. Free if you want it, but probably 
not capable enough to run any significant dashboards. And (2), a Compaq 
desktop unit from circa ~2003 whose hard drive may or may not bite the 
dust in the next 100 reboot cycles. ;-)


Thanks,
David C.
