-<P>
-
-Many companies use GNU software for their work. If your office uses
-GNU software substantially, you might feel that the company ought to
-donate to the FSF. If you think so, we suggest you first talk about
-the idea with the other people in your company who use GNU software,
-and together decide the best way to ask your management to contribute.
-
-<P>
-There are a number of ways a company can support the FSF. It can give
-money with an outright donation of funds, or through
-purchases--especially
-
-<A HREF="http://order.fsf.org/";>CD-ROM subscriptions</A>
-or a
-<A HREF="http://order.fsf.org/";>Deluxe Distribution</A>.
-
-<P>
-Donation of office equipment and supplies can also be useful, if that
-is convenient for you. Ask
-
-<A HREF="mailto:address@hidden";><address@hidden></A>
-to find out whether what you have is useful for us.
-
-<P>
-Donating computer hardware is also sometimes useful--especially
-certain equipment that we specially need, or a new fast machine that
-can run a GNU system. Ask
-
-<A HREF="mailto:address@hidden";><address@hidden></A>
-to find out whether certain hardware is useful.
-
-<P>
-But more computers are not our primary need today. Ten years ago,
-when computers were very expensive, it was hard to find enough
-machines for our staff to use. Nowadays even a fast PC with a very
-nice monitor costs less than paying a programmer for one month.
-Therefore, our main need today is for funds to pay more programmers.
-
-<P>
-The best way for a company to donate is whichever way management will
-agree to. Supporting the FSF through purchases does not have to be
-done by the top management; many managers have purchasing authority.
-So please consider various ways and see which ways can work in your
-company.
-
-<P>
-There are free software support companies in the US which work on
-developing certain GNU software packages. Doing business with them
-does support a part of the GNU project. However, most of these
-companies do not donate funds to the Free Software Foundation. So we
-hope that you will consider supporting the FSF directly, as well, even
-if you are a customer of these companies.
