You can pick up the low end platforms for about a tenth of that.
However, these platforms are *great* for Solaris, but there is much
support still lacking for *OpenSolaris*. I hope to rectify that, but
since its a spare time effort, and I haven't had much spare time lately,
progress has been quite slow. (Mostly this means porting Tadpole
proprietary Solaris 10 software to OpenSolaris, adapting for some
differences, and such. Also, making the software work better with stock
OpenSolaris without requiring closed source userland bits from Tadpole.
I've got a code drop from Tadpole with permission to contribute to
Nevada, along with a couple of test units, but time has been something
I've been dearly short of lately.

Look for the "Hardware Compatibility List" (HCL) on bigadmin. Probably
