Hi,

	I'm planning to buy a SunFire V100 and saw there were two kinda proc:
http://sunsolve.sun.com/handbook_pub/Devices/System_Board/SYSBD_SunFireV100.html

	So here're a few questions :)
	-> Does NetBSD supports both UltraSPARC IIe and IIi ???
	-> According to SUN specs, there are not that different - looks a bit
like Intel Pentium vs Celeron - is that right ?
	-> Should I absolutely not buy an IIe or are they OK ?
	-> I'm planning to get the N19-UUE1-9S-256EX1
(http://sunsolve.sun.com/handbook_pub/Systems/SunFireV100/component.V10
0.html) - any "NOOO, DO NOT BUY THIS ONE !!!" before I fill the check in
???

Thanks for answers,
	Jo
