[rescue] Just a thought - what would be a good starter SPARC system these days?

ah - there is the rub - folks I talk to today want to
learn Solaris8 as it is the "latest/greatest" - they
don't want to "learn" 2.5.1 or 2.6 or 2.7 - that is so
"old"....and of course an SS2 won't run Sol8...so the
basic premise is back to what's the minimum to run Sol8....
