Older? I don't know, the benefits don't justify costs.  But "cheap", definitely 
YES.

You are directed to Dr. James C. Liu's weblog (Dr. Liu is a long-time Sun 
veteran, dubbed as "prince of cheap Solaris-compatible hardware").  For example:

A bunch of Sun's developers (very difficult not to love them) are interested in 
exploring low-power, good-performance, low cost (~$70 plus cpu, memory, 
storage, case) for use as home SAMP servers.
