We know have all the parts I believe. Next step will be is to do all the number crunching. And see just how many blades we can afford. This will be after S@H and parts hosts need.
I'll get together later with Kristi in the evening on this when she gets home, and we will do the math.
Thanks to all the members that voted. We are now that much closer to bringing this to live.

We're almost on our way!
May I ask if the crunchers will have their own login name to UD, or are they going to be logged in under the name of each host?
I think it would be pretty cool to see how much all of them can crunch on their own, independently of all of us..  -- "Forewarned is forearmed..." -gwion |

Michael, I believe that HDD's was never an issue since we really don't need large sized HDD's. So basically any old 1-2 Gig HDD will do.
There where a number of members that said they would donate that, if the hosts did not already have old ones to use for the blades.
I believe that with this we should be ok. And Kristi will give a follow up on this. Just to let the members know how many blades our finances now allow us. And just how many HDD's we will need to start with (Or need if that is the case).

I think this is an excellent question Michael. And one that is probably better to discuss in the Project Hope Forum.
If you will be as kind as to make that a post there, we can go over this over there. This way we don't clutter up the main to much and keep all the Project Hope info all in one place.
