[Sunhelp] Comparison correction

[Bill Bradford]

this 170mhz was most likely an ultra 170, not a ss5/170, btw...
On direct CPU processing power only (not I/O under load), I've
found a PPro200/512k to be about the same as an Ultra 170E, but
put any load on the boxes and the Ultra clearly smokes the 'Pro.
