to hooking classic SPARC gear to a KVM. For _that_,
Sun sells one of the cheaper units (surprise, surprise), but it is,

I think you can get one from Raritan cheaper than that.
We had a Raritan switch at a former employer (about 100 yards from
where I'm sitting now ;-)... a nice one - 4x32 (and they bought an
expansion box after I was gone) - about $10K with cables. At the
time (c. 1999), the Raritan converter was $150. We bought a Sun
box to stick my SPARC2 (that I later sold them) on the KVM as our
first "non-NT" host in the server room.
Perhaps Raritan has a new model or has lowered the price on their
old model, but at one time, Sun had the cheapest solution.
