Ah. remember the days of the Sun3/50, M68000 class system, 4MB and got 
all it needed to run from the server...   the original "the network is 
the computer" computer...

what have we lost in SunOS that we need to "re-invent" to at least get 
us back to swapfull systems??  small disks are cheap, $30US for 1GB 
drive on ebay, and seems that all the base infrastructure is there, just 
not the administrative tools to make it easy to manage.

thoughts???
