That is a bit mis-leading if there is anything other than entry graphics
in the units.  If so, then these are going to be a lot snappier as 
workstations than any of the graphics options for the SS2 ever were.

Personally, I like SPARCs, but I really love Mips, but I don't think that
Indigos are likely to be as good for servers as my Sparcs are.
