It's kind of embarrasing to show what a mess my desk is, but check out the three sparcs under my desk on the left: http://www.campin.net/pics/desk.jpg I'd give any one of the three to the Debian project. They're all fully operational, I have various Debian and solaris versions installed on them, I only fire them up for book research once in a while. They're all similar in horsepower, all dual ultrasparcII's, the UE2 has dual 300mhz, the E250 has 400 or 450mhz and the 220R on the bottom has dual 450mhz processors. All have at least a gig of memory, and the E250 is packed full of disks (all 9 gig disks I think but all fast 10k RPM). Anyways, I'm in the SF Bay area, and I'd bring them anywhere in the Bay Area myself for no charge. I owe Debian that much. -- Nate The 5 year plan: In five years we'll make up another plan.
