I'd like to highlight this comment by Adriaan de Groot:Quoting:No, it's not weak. It would be one of the strongest machines in our infrastructure. When I said that KDE as a project runs on surprisingly little hardware, I meant it: we have machines that you wouldn't use as a modern doorstop supporting critical parts of the project. At the same time, we don't need monstrous kit to get things done, so this donation is, just like I said: a nice way of extending our reach. |

Consider the innate frugality of F/OSS systems when the donation of a single server makes headlines. Just a thought. |

Quoting:I prefer to read that as meaning that FOSS is efficient As indeed it is. I have that lesson rammed home to me every work day, as I compare my Linux systems to what I have to use at work. |
