Cost of machine: $6300 to $6500


So why pay $6300+ for something which can be had possibly for free
during the development phase and at worst for $45 per month?

Youre not getting the same that ibiblio offers. And what about after the
development stage and permanent hosting is needed?

And which the group doesn't even own at the end of the process??

We would certainly "own" whatever we need of that server plus bandwidth, staff time for maintenance, backups, software upgrades, and much more on a permanent basis.

I suppose you've figured out where we would get the money we would need to
pay for all this, years and years of high bandwidth
heavy traffic hosting, plenty of storage, streaming audio and video and more.
What, btw, do you plan to contribute to this project?
