Not sure if this has been discussed yet, but we have US$95,000 budgeted for hardware this quarter ($20,000 of which for Extra hardware/dev projects ; meaning hardware and/or paying for critical software development). This does not include whatever has been bought already (Jamesday ; how much have we spent since the January order? I don't have the bank records for that yet.).

I�d really like to have a general idea on what we want to buy soon and if that can be bought before the end of the quarter in 2 weeks, then that�d make accounting a bit easier for me :).
Note: About $20,000 of the money generated is in the Wikimedia Deutschland bank account. The easiest way I can see to use that money is to buy equipment that would be used in a German-based datacenter. I�ve been told that there are many different offers for free/subsidized hosting in Germany. http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Fund_drives/2005/Q1
So, what do we want to buy?
