I've got spare ISP cards if you want me to loan you one. Or if you loan me
an Ultra1....(see below)

Umm- I could probably also loan you access to either an Ultra30 or an
Ultra10 at my place if you want to ssh to do it. I'd have to do some
planning on it to interleave with other work. The Ultra10 is on loan from
Veritas and could go away.  I might end up buying an OEM board from Aspen
Systems- if I get more work out of Antares (I'm doing some Solaris NCR
53c895 LVD/Ultra2 work for them) I'll try and get *them* to pony up more
h/w...

Hey- can't you get Rajeev to drop you some h/w on this? Or are you making
sure that this has no overlap with with Sun life? Seems kinda silly if so.
