# Compaq has a program called "Testdrive" where they offer free accounts
# on a VERY wide range of machines & OS's. Tru64, Caldera, Debian,
# Redhat, Kondara, OpenVMS, Mandrake, SuSE, Turbo, NetBSD, FreeBSD,
# Beowulf, iPAQ on Alpha, x86 and even ARM.
#
# If somebody's feeling ambicious, setup smoking across all the
# machines. I'll try talking to the Testdrive admins, they may be nice
# enough to install the necessary libraries across all machines.
# (If someone could give me a list of the basic needs).
#
#
# I've got an account (just ask, they give you one) for people to play
# with. Further information can be had here:

There's a bit of a challenge with setting up automated smoking--outbound
connections aren't allowed. That probably means you have to upload the
parrot-latest tarball via FTP and then use Telnet to issue the commands
(or at least the command to start smoking) for automated periodic
smokes. Eek.
