Well, the fun setting it up shouldn't have lastet any longer than
about a few minutes ;)

Well, an SS20 is one of the fastest "real" Suns ever built.

I'm running an SS2 (with xbox attached) for serveral purposes, at the
time it's my LDAP test machine.

My SS5 has been used as a workstation until a few months ago. It
performed pretty well.

A bit slow? A bit slow doing what -- playing DOOM3? Recalculating pi?
Running BGP with AT&T? ;)

Do you mean "pages" or do you mean "sites"?

Nevertheless, forget about it. If you consider your system slow, go
and get the actual special-offer-PC from the next Starbucks.

It will run NetBSD also.
