my laptop died a while back, haven't replaced it yet.  haven't been very tempted
to either, don't really have a need to.  that was the last of my x86 hardware.

latest and greatest Sun i have is my faithful sparc20, so nope, nope and nope.

i'd just be happy getting that stupid SSA working.  although i may have to look
into those SCSI->IDE things.  if i could make a RAID out of a couple IDE disks
that would be kinda cool.  although those SCSI->IDE things would have to be
fairly cheap.
