These are a dime a dozen around here. Ask your friendly sysadmin if
he has spare ones lying about -- most machines come with TP installed
these days, so tranceivers aren't needed anymore.

Warning, SPARCstation 2 is a very old and slow machine. Remember it
was released in 1990 (or perhaps 1991). A 486 is faster. It can be
used for your purposes if you are patient, but good old SunOS 4.x is
more efficient than Linux on such a relic. You don't get source for
SunOS 4, though :-)
