Before you go off picking a bus because the cards look "neat" shouldn't you
agree on what your goals are? Some of these suggestions indicate that
certain people like certain things, but there's really been no discussion of
why one might want to use one or another. In the absence of
goals/requirements, there can be no analysis or design.
Does anybody know where this is supposed to lead?

Too highend.
Yes, but the highend SPARC stuff tends to become cheap - SPARCstation 1s
these days are almost free. Anyway, some of the older SPARC boxes have
really nice 9U VME cages.
By the way, the SPARC architecture really is open - there are lots of
things SPARC that are not Sun/Solaris.
