I'm only aware of one Javastation that comes in a 611 like case.  It can
have different prom versions though, but that mainly just means that you
may or not have to netboot an intemediate program first.  I ended up
selling my Javastation before getting it working, but it got past the
first stage of communicating with the boot server and was hanging on
loading an OS image.

I shall soon be resuming the attempts at actually making my boot server
finally boot something when the semester is over so that I can boot a ELC.
