[sudo-discuss] sudo donation: pinball machine (fully working)

[Jake]

Yar I think that we should consider using the space we do have to host this
machine while we find a forever home for it, considering Michael is offering it
to us for free and doesn't mind if we keep the money from the sale of it.

We would be able to have it and (safely) let members look at it and learn from
its cool DIY design while posting it looking for a buyer.  I don't think we're
using the space we have in the way that we used to right now anyway, so it
seems like a good fit to me.

Does anyone else feel this way?
