If everyone was to contribute about the cost of a good 486 system (~$2000), you would only need about eight other hobbyists to join you and somebody's basement to put it in. Sounds like a good idea for a club to me... Erik. [A pretty pricey club, with $2000 in dues! It does happen, e.g. I know of clubs that own things like an airplane, but most people I know would be more likely to form a club to build something... (Of course I know a lot of destitute grad students!) --JoSH]
