[SPARCbook] What software improvments?

[Michael Schiller]

About the only 'improvements' I would want would be reasonably priced Sol7
&/or Sol8 patches. There's NO reason to pay $500 for an OS you can buy
from Sun for 75!! I mean I already have Sol7 & 8 discs here, I'd be
willing to pay a few more for the Sparcbook specific patches, but that's
just highway robbery!
