Sun will replace the motherboard if its an Ultra 1-140/140E with a failed
fan; they'll put in a 170E board.

I had a fan go bad on a 170E board (early rev, with the fan) - the local
Sun FE just took an identical fan off a PC heatsink/fan combo, and spliced
it into the power connector for the old fan, since they were out of stock /
no longer produced.
