I think an Ultra 5 is probably a little light for our purposes: m68k's
porter machine may be slower, but m68k also doesn't have, say, an
openoffice.org port that might need debugging... Also, given the problems
that consumer-grade DSL poses for system accessibility over the long term,
I'd think that vore is still a better bet currently in spite of some past
connectivity problems there, both connectivity-wise and bogomips-wise.
Would you be willing to ship the system to Stephen if the search for better
hardware pans out and vore proves unreliable in the long term?
