This is indeed a great offer, and from my experiences that I've made with
Toshiba, doing evaluations for/on vendor machines helps both NetBSD and
the vendor to find out possible problems, incompatibilities, etc. FYI, I'm
doing evaluation of NetBSD on Toshiba machines.  Their NetBSD web pages
are at http://newsletter.toshiba-tro.de/netbsd/.

Thank you for your help! :)
