I have set up my new SS/5-170, and I have a few quick questions:
On an SS/5 - will I get better graphics *performance* from a TGX or an
AFX?
How can I tell what resolution/color depth my SS/5 is at (I have the AFX
card in now)?
Anyone know how long a Seti at home packet takes on on unladen SS/5-170?
And interesting info on my Supersellers.net box:
It was an SS/5-110 that Sun upgraded (via MB swap) to 170 MHz
(The case is SS/5-110, the MB was designed for the TurboSPARC)
When I powered it up, it reported that the clock had avanced 760 days(!)
The unit did not include a floppy drive - no biggie.
The CD-ROM I had for internal use appears to be a 1x or 2x drive - what
is the fastest drive available for this case?
