18: <h2>Hardware wanted.</h2>
19:
20: <p>
21: The following list outlines hardware that the OpenBSD project could use.
22: Some of this is being requested so that developers can improve or add driver
23: support for devices which are rare; other requests are for hardware that
24: will improve our development environment. In either case, we think we are
25: being reasonable at asking for these devices.
