Hi rescuers,

I just won an Ultra 2 on Ebay (item #1237613645) for what I thought was a 
good price.  I was expecting to get sniped as I didn't bid much over the 
eventual win price but now I'm a bit worried because I didn't.

Question 1: Am I really a fool and paid far too much, or is this some 
higher being's revenge for the cheap HP D-Class box I got a few weeks ago?

Question 2: Is anyone interested in swapping me stuff for the Creator 3D 
and the Wide Diff SCSI cards out of it?  I'm not going to be needing them, 
so I might as well trade them for something more useful.

Question 3: Any gotchas for getting Solaris 8 to install and run 64bit on 
this box?

That's about all for now, I'll probably poke my head up again with more 
questions like this once the box has been paid for and has travelled 
half-way around the globe to me.

cheers,

Rob.
