Mike:

I think this will run around the same as my B132L, which is more than
competent for HP-UX 11.0.  

As for graphics head, does the box have PS/2 inputs?  If so, yeah, you
should be able to drop in an HCRX board...

God, I gotta find me a D-class box now, all you guys find these suckers :)
I've got (2) 4.3GB disks for a D just sitting :)
