The American Way (TM) - There's no obstacle too big for purchasing power.

That is a bold statement to make and doesn't belong here. There are a little over 6 billion people in the world and 192 countries and you think others can't buy hardware? The whole world isn't poor you know. Do you have anything to say about gcc bootstrapping?


More insight on the bootstrapping interest:

Not only that when you bootstrap through LFS then you get to BLFS and people want other compilers, even when installing gcc-3.3.4 just for the libstdc++ library, and bootstrap there, too. So it may well go beyond 6-12.
