My workstation at work is the SS20.  I have 224MB of RAM soon to be 
352MB, a single 8MB SX head, 2x SM61's, and 2 4GB drives.  It runs Sol 
9.

I'm running 1280x1024x66 at 24bits... has anyone used sxconfig to 
obtain extra speed?.  What I'm concerned about is the speed of full 
window drag (it's a petty thing, but I was wondering if the sxconfig 
would help that) (the TGX+ at 1152x900 was faster for that as expected)
