  1. Sources of external funding

  4. Hardware details (service updates, repair kits)
  5. Solicit for donations of items under "extra materials" ie usb cables, extension cords etc.
  6. Become a group. Donations: some companies only donate for tax purposes (we would need to be an MIT club to be able to use MIT's tax id number). Maybe we could work through GPI or something for this.
