We have disk.math.washington.edu, which is an 8-core 2.3Ghz opteron with 32GB of RAM, which runs *OpenSolaris*. Also, one could setup a Solaris 10 x86 virtual machine on boxen, which would be another way to get x86 solaris that is way faster than t2. Regarding sparc solaris, there are fast machines on skynet. -- William > > -Marshall > > On Jan 22, 1:52 pm, William Stein <wst...@gmail.com> wrote: >> Hi, >> >> We are considering purchasing a new computer for the sage.math >> cluster, which will act partly as a Sage notebook server.
