For me, though, the 2/120 is the definition of the Sun-2 line.  1/2 a MIP
next to your desk!  Woohoo!  (Plus, it is where I started using Sun.  A long
time ago now...)

There are actually some significant piles of 2/120 parts out there - at one
point I had what may be the biggest collection of multibus cards around.
Dunno who has 'em now, but I'll check and see if I can track 'em down.  If
you want to get onw running, I have some tips - send me private mail.

-Pete
