I have seen a Solaris x86 box packaged with a multi-million dollar Xerox
system. It acted as the print spooler / queue manager for the system.
I don't know if they actually needed that much power, or if the couple
of grand for a beefy x86 system was just rounding error on the overall
price of the system.
I assume these beige SPARC boxes came from the previous generation of
Xeroix printers.
