Yes, I am the one who listed 450 instead of 480.   I'm a terrible  
person.  Revoke my rescue
license.

I did indicate that it had to be a BA chassis instead of a AA, so  
would have
hoped that would have indicated that I did at least know something about
the E450 (and that I had probably made a mental hiccup from the model  
to the CPU speed).

Since I am on the topic of chassis, I would remind folks that the AA  
chassis did
not support all of the expansion that the BA and CA did.  When we  
were looking for another
E450 at my old work  ( as a hot backup) and found a bunch of 450's  
that at the time were cheap,
and almost purchased one until I got some info from a Sun reseller  
that I've worked with who
clued me in that they were cheap because they were AA's....
