What's the difference between an Ex000, and the Ex500 system of the same
"x"?  I know the Ex000 systems were discontinued[1] a while back, but I
don't recall what Sun was cheering about when they ushered in the new
Ex500 machines.

I'm asking because I have the opportunity to get an E3000 (6x250, 1.5GB)
for relatively cheap, and I'm wondering if there are any huge gotchas
that'll have me disappointed.
