Hello,
    I recently got a SPARCstation 2, as I mentioned a short while back, =
and was wondering whether it is worth the 200$ to fully upgrade this =
thing.  I was thinking of bumping it up to the full 64mb of RAM plus the =
64mb daughter card, and a PowerUP processor upgrade.  Would such a =
machine be powerful enough to run as a OpenBSD workstation (console, no =
windowing system)?  I realize that in all likelyhood that 200$ would be =
better spent on a 586 machine, but I would like to replace my current =
Athlon with something a little more reliable (and quite) then x86 =
hardware.
