That is exactly what I do. I take a USB stick with a copy of NetBSD
installed on it into the store and boot it up. Then I simply run startx and
watch the action from there.
BTW, if there is work to be done with C or shell script to help with any
kind of test suite + website idea like this in the future, then I'd be
willing to help out a bit. The same goes for hardware. PCIe-wise I have
@20 discrete Radeon and 6 Nvidia graphics cards. Most of them work, but
some don't. I'd be willing to test them directly or mail them to folks who
want to help. There are only 1 or 2 I'd care to get back.
Thanks,
Swift
