Yes, but what about a GROUP of nanotech hackers?  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!)
