Even the guy who writes the software that almost all mining equipment in existence uses and depends on hardly ever gets free hardware, even though he returns the favour with ongoing driver support, though he did get an SP10 which he was grateful for.
ckolivas, I'll give you 6 kW of free hosting with us for as long as we're in business. If you have use for a dedicated server on a 100 Mbit/s symmetrical fiber link, we could probably provide that for you too, as long as you're careful about security and do your own sysadmining and are okay with uptime in the 99%-99.9% range.
Edit: As long as we're in business and you are actively maintaining cgminer and contributing to the community.
