I guess I meant a person dedicated to:

Keeping the raq3 OS up to date (you are regularly several months behind..ie
now releasing 2.2.14 when the world is on 2.2.15 ).....

Regarding the RaQ3, its hard to recommend a product that 1) costs more than
an equivalently equipped PC, 2) is underpowered and 3) is several releases
behind and 4) may not support the next major release of linux based on the
history of the raq2. Its a thought process thats building, in case you
werent aware of it.
