All compatible computers, operating systems and software will be free on this new platform. No one will be paid in any way to use these machines but will give of his/her time freely. These machines will replace main frames, minis and microcomputers. They will be designed for business, as the owner has no operating cost. Another requirement is that these computers should not consume any electrical energy – as we have a power crunch here in California.

Dang... I think you may have missed your opportunity. A few years back a couple professors here at the University of Utah had developed cold fusion. You could have powered your computers with CF-based power supplies...
