Sorry for responding to my own post, but I failed to add that I also have SS/20 bases as well - of course, migration to either an SS/20 or Ultra 2 would require ditching 50 pin SCSI drives for 80 pin SCA SCSI drives. An SS/20 would allow you to reuse your CPUs and RAM, the Ultra 2 would only allow you to reuse your RAM, but either would allow for better graphics than an SS/10 (if that is a concern/interest), and an Ultra 2 could be upgraded to run Solaris 10 nicely (again, if that is a concern/interest)...
