Fair enough - I'm sure the local sysadmin said it was basically just a 
headless version of one of their other machines, but I must be misremembering 
the SPARC 5 bit :)

I've been putting off picking up a couple from someone as the boat-anchor 
alarm bells were ringing :-) Maybe it is worth my while to go get them even if 
they only realistically sell for a fraction of that price. I suppose Sun fans 
like to use them for their intended purpose (for which they'll do a capable 
job) - and unlike the desktop workstations they just don't turn up that often.
