I could dig up some old hardware somewhere to help this port getting
somewhere. We have 4/100, 4/300 and 4/400 CPU's collecting dust here,
along with various P4 frambuffers, SMD-controllers, IPI-controllers,
24bit framebuffer, and so on...  The thing that worries me would be the
shipment cost from northern Sweden to the states. :-(
