Screw that.  I'll take a U1-E any day over a U5 - hands down.  My
U1-170E Creator2D is much more responsive than the U5 I use from time to
time.

U30s, are going for very attractive prices - I got one for $500 with
400Mhz, 256MB Ram, 2x4GB, Elite3d, and SunPCi.  Sold the Elite3d and
SunPCi, bought a 36GB drive that came with a metal spud, slammed the 4GB
drives into my U1, and my net was $400.

I'll agree though, that the U5 should be way less than the U30.  There
simply isn't a comparison there - apples to crabapples (they are both
Sun after all).
