Yeah, there'd be something appealing about an iSPARC: A Blade 100 merged
with a 17-inch Trinitron.  The only problem being, what market would buy
them, other than schools?

I've used an ELC.  I can't say that I was honestly impressed by anything
other than the clarity of the screen and how novel the idea was at the
time.  The machine itself was rather pokey, and the SLC was the slowest
SPARC Sun ever made.
