PXES: Why donate ?

Why donate ?

Established as the most important Open Source thin client project PXES
Universal Linux Thin Client is standing out as a clear alternative to
proprietary operating systems in the desktop. It's now approaching
100000 downloads, figure which I hope to reach by the end of the year
2003. 
http://sourceforge.net/project/stats/index.php?report=months&group_id=45684

Currently users are making great savings on software licenses, hardware
and maintenance costs using PXES Universal Linux Thin Client. 
Also receiving a dedicated support and assistance by mailing lists and
forums. 
At present I have a ROADMAP with expected enhancements and deadlines to
be met. 
Donations would speed up this process enabling all users to keep
receiving the benefits of Open Source and ensure PXES Universal Linux
Thin Client continuity.
