I am offering my shop. Located 13 Miles north of Toledo, Ohio. We are an active user of LinuxCNC not really developers, but would love to help in the process. Lake Erie is close by and the Islands can be a fun diversion as well as Cedar Point for an excuse to bring the family. Currently have three machining centers running Linux and looking to convert a mill. At 13,000 Square feet I am not huge but we can find the room as needed.

It works quite well. I think the GX240 is a pretty similar machine, just a little older. It should have decent latency and a rock solid parallel port.

I have a stack (literally a tall stack) of Optiplex GX520 mini towers and one small form factor. I also have one each 745 tower, 755, 760 and 780 SFF. The 780 may become my new HTPC since it has a DisplayPort and there are DP to HDMI adapters or I could install a low profile PCIe x16 card with HDMI. (My current HTPC is an old Compaq EVO. Low profile AGP cards with HDMI do exist but they're insanely expensive.) Also in the lot is a 620 that won't turn on, all it does it light the yellow standby power LED on the board. It's not the common 620 capacitor problem nor the power supply. I moved that to one of the 520's that was missing its power supply. Then there's three mpc ClientPro 385 and some other towers, plus a pile of laptops including four mpc TransPort T2500 (same as Samsung X65). Just got power bricks for a couple of 17" Dell LCDs. Sadly, one has a star crack in the upper middle that's invisible until the backlight is on. The LCD itself is fine, so is the matte finish front layer. Get any color but black behind the crack and it almost vanishes. If you're anywhere near Weiser, ID, I have some computers. :) --- This email is free from viruses and malware because avast!

Space? We've got ~26,000 square feet and a fiber business connection (with WiFi). Bring a small machine or big ones, we've got 3-phase. Or play with ours, we've got 4 mills (Sherline to Bridgeport), 2 routers, a mini-lathe, and a plasma table all running LCNC, with a few others slated for conversion. We have a full kitchen for food (Houston also claims more restaurants per capita than anywhere else in the country) and being in the center (more or less) of Houston means all sorts of hotels/motels for lodging. What date works for folks? Pick a date and we'll make it happen.
