Although created by a volunteers, PLD has expenses that were, for a long time, paid for out of a few of the developers. These expenses include e.g. registering the pld-linux.org domain.

It's not possible, at the moment for PLD to purchase and maintain it's own computers and network connections. We therefore rely on the donations of equipment and services from companies and universities to keep PLD connected to the world.

If your company or you has any idle machines or spare equipment (hard drives, SCSI controllers, network cards, etc) lying around, please consider donating them to us.
