Im thinking one sparc box would become an NTP server ( if Im using a non

The second box.. hmm ..maybe a honeypot ? anyone feel like playing with
a honeypot ?
I suggest using them as doorstops or as rebar in your next concrete
construction project.
I do not suggest using them as climbables in a monster truck
competition. In the late 1990s, SGI introduced a new server or
something, and the marketing weenies thought it would be fun to get
some old Suns and crush them under a monster truck at an SGI company
event. Unfortunately, old computers are much more solid than old
cars, and they didn't crush at all. Most of them survived with just a
few scratches.
ROFL !.. oh man if you knew the situation .. it just makes it all that
more funny. Im forwarding that one to my boss. and Im so temped to go
into gritty details.. Lets just say that the main IS depts ( the one
responsible for 90% of the servers ) just bought a few Linux servers at
about $3K - $5K each.. and the last single solaris box was $55,000 ..
yes this is your tax money and electric bill at work..
