Solaris 8 Anyone?

[Kevin]

Depends on the Sparc5 though.  Some of the later revisions were actually 
faster than a Sparc 20 (somewhere around 150MHz).  But, you can also get 
Sparc Ultra 5's with monitor for $1200 - 1500 if you want a faster machine.  
I'm sure there's probably places to get them cheaper also, just giving an 
example.

I've been trying to download Solaris 8, even on roadrunner its taking 
forever!  :)
