Should be fast enough for most of us.  No framebuffer means it's not a
desktop and I'm having difficulty believing you'd need 400MHz for 2 x
Fast Ethernet interfaces.

You might want to double check this, but I don't believe it has any
expansion at all.  Means we can't slap in a SCSI card and ditch the
non-SCSI disk.

Bugger that, I want one now!  One of these and a SunRay will do me fine,
just fine.  Now I just need to sell my Sparc 10 and Sparc 5 to justify
