task that even Pentium 100 will do.
I'm hosting websites on 5-10 years old SUN hardware. V100/120 with ultrasparc II
400-650 Mhz. Just put in some new disks and memory, no sweat. They allmost
normal. 400MHz SUNs are available here for 100$ or less. they usually have
quite a lot of RAM even 512MB, but in case i need more - can it be added
with standard SDRAM DIMMs, or superexpensive SUN memory only?
how about disks? usually one don't need terabyte disk, and 18-36GB SCSI
drives are really cheap used.
But do SUNs accept normal SCSI drives or SUN-only? ;)
What you say about reliability of SUN hardware - fully agree.
never break down. And I like the openboot and LOM facilities. A simple serial
connection is all you need.
which is really important, and all super-excellent-modern PCs don't have.
I have to put some display card just to be able to configure things.
