I wouldn't say they are looking for token donations...I've exchanged some
emails with them and they are looking for ebay like prices for the
SuperPets. They wanted $50 shipping for each unit (SuperPet, TRS-80, Apple
etc.) without regard to the weight/actual shipping costs.

sounds like they will take a "token donation" for a system or systems or
maybe the whole lot.

Sounds like this:
