No, it's more my information was 2 years out of date.  Not only do they 
support it, my coworker has a redhat 6.2 sparc cd already burnt, and I'm 
installing as we speak :)

I'll have to check that out too... hell, if I get a bunch of machines, I can 
test out lots of os's ! :)

Also, in theory, these things will take anything on an MBus card, right?  
Right now, I have the Cypress CY7C605b's, but I should be able to upgrade to 
something zippier, right?  Any recommendations for someone trying to do this 
on a small to nonexistent budget?
