Well, from my perspective, the question is architecture per architecture. I mean, I think it=E2=80=99s doable to find sponsor (compani= es or academic institutions) for x86_64 because it=E2=80=99s commonly used. And that=E2=80=99s not the case for less used others. Other said, I think it would be a bad investment to buy x86_64 machines when they could be donated and/or hosted. However, it would be harder for aarch64 or power9 or else, IMHO. Cheers, simon
