Is this what you're booting from?

Interesting.  Is it anywhere near as good as a Matrox?  ;-)

I've heard some tales (good btw) about Sparc's and framebuffered graphics. 
Couldn't say myself if any of it was true.

I had one of those once and had troubles with it seeing it couldn't do full
duplex which makes it a tad troublesome for use as a audio conferencing thingy.

That can be handy.  I'd be tempted to put a GPS reciever on there.

 JW>           o HD : none ;-)

I already knew that which is why I asked what it boots to.  There *HAS* to be
something.

That doesn't tell me much other then what it does AFTER it boots.  What if
there isn't a nfs server?  What happens then?

Maybe.  I hate web advertising since they never tell you what you REALLY want
to know.

Okay.  I may check that out but it still doesn't answer my questions.

What are you afraid of?  What are you hiding there?  ;-)
