Actually, it’s a big OVAL orange button (heh!)... and when I clicked on
it, it goes directly to a Gallium bounty donation page. How do you
donate to fund the servers, specifically? The interesting thing is, it
costs about US$600 (as I recall, Euros are worth slightly more than US
dollars, so I’m rounding up the dollar amount) per year to fund the
servers. How many people use and believe in Haiku? If it were 600
people, it would only cost $1 ea. Say, it were only 300 people...
that’s $2 ea. Say it was only 150 people... that’s $3 ea. Only 75
people? A whopping $4 ea. And, if it were... *gasp!* just 37.5
people... we’d each have to fork over $5 ea.
... or 0.5859375 people just $11 each? Somewhere in that paragraph your
math was abducted and replaced by a dyscalculic doppelganger. Or maybe
slicing people just thinly enough indeed yields a greater total than
expected. ;-)

Please, don't blame Luposian so roughly. He is just "yet another victim" of the
Pentium's FPU bug !

AHAHAHAHAHA! That’s a good one. But... oh, wait, I am using a Pentium-based
laptop. A modern Pentium (Dual core), but still a Pentium. And I’m running
Windows 8! That’s gotta be it. If I was running Haiku, that would’ve
prevented this whole thing! Um... how do you get Haiku to run on a Windows 8
laptop, with a uEFI BIOS? Tell me, please!
