For the initial stages of a project, where you decide.. hmm.. do we use ucLinux or VxWorks or MorphOS? Buying an ODW box makes little sense just to determine that. VxWorks and ucLinux already run on x86 so booting them on your PC or in VMWare is a simple task - and you can determine then whether you want to use them. MorphOS requires dedicated hardware to test and runs the risk of being instantly discounted because of it.

Well, your goal is to reach companies. Then consider again to give Pegasi for rent - 4weeks/100 EUR. As said this is not to raise funds for gensesi, but may compensate costs for genesi. 100 bucks are really *nothing*.
And it gives you so much more credibility when you can offer them just to ship a box for testing for a little charge. I test a lot of eqipment at university, expensive equipment (mostly optical stuff), most of those companies offer a test rent for a little charge.
As long as we speak of companies the demand will not be 10000 (add or reduce some 0s here) maschines, but only some. Just start with that in a small scale, assemble say 20 - 50 maschines and start the offer, if noone will take the offer then you still can sell the maschines... It's close to riskless. According to BBRV boards were just produced yesterday, the offer might start within 10 days!
