The next rung
up on the ladder is a SPARC5 70Mhz. Those are nearly at "haul
them away" status, but they take SCA connector drives internally, have a
short CD-ROM bay, etc.
There is a suns-at-home list that people with personal SPARC hardware might
consider joining. General information about the mailing list is at:

Well, If I ever find an LX or Classic or Sparc5 at haul it away
prices I'll laugh all the way home to my CD collection.
I've been unable to find them cheap enough around here. (NJ)
My department still ran Sparc5's and 20's at Lucent last year.
I wouldn't mind a SS20 at haul-away prices, even without CPUs.
I've got a bunch of CPUs, just no box to put them in.
How expensive is a CPU-less Sparc Ultra? I can get a cheap
360u CPU if I can get a cheap system without CPU.
