I wrote out a check for $50 to Debian today.  It will go out in tomorrow's 
mail.

I like the Debian project.  And even though I'm going to put Kubuntu on my 
laptop, I've heard that Ubuntu is a Debian based distro.  I'm not sure giving 
money to Debian really helps Kubuntu or not, but Debian deserves support 
anyway.

Giving a little money is the only thing I can do since I have no technical 
expertise of any kind.
