Holy crap.

Nice box!

This reminds me of something. Am I the only one who has wished multiple
times for a wall poster of Sun boxes? You know, something like the
target identification silhouette wall posters they make for military
aircraft?

<mentally estimating time needed to gather images of every type of Sun
box from the web and photoshopping them into a poster>

   Installing the E3x00s is cool: they arrive on a tiny pallet, with
these two foam ramps faced in masonite (or whatever) that the CPU rides
down to the floor.

   'Course, then you have to hoist the thing up into the rack...but
those little ramps sure are cute, and the pallet is a dandy size for the
workshop.

   (And I also have V890s in racks. Don't ask.)
