For the most part, you can rely on any deals on eBay regarding sparc hardware being bad. http://www.gstek.com/ has pretty good prices. As long as you don't pay for shipping a monitor, it's not tough to stay under 100$. -- Kevin Doherty, [EMAIL PROTECTED] "Multiple exclamation marks are a sure sign of a diseased mind." -- Rincewind (from _Eric_)
