Well, here in Morpeth, there is a mental health charity called "Contact"
and a church-without-a-building-or-a-priest, also in Morpeth. Within these
communities, when people upgrade their hardware, they make it available for
other people. I handle the technical details about that. Because of the
need to support hardware for people without much money. the alternate i386
build is really important here. Am slowly seeing more 64 bit hardware being
passed on but I have friends running 32 bit laptops just fine, also using
alternate i386.
