I was surfing ebay, and I saw this Dual MC68040 VME Single Board Computers
(http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1236413911).

The following occured to me.  Many Sun3 owners run NetBSD, OpenBSD, or
linux instead of SunOS.  So, one could take 4 or these boards, cram them
into a Sun3/160 chassis, and run linux SMP with Mosix patch on them.
Thus, making a Super Sun3. 

I just got a job, but I don't start till monday.  If I have money after
buying new clothes for the job (stuff from last job worn out), I might by
a few of these boards.
