If it's not a hassle, do you have advice on what either of the 
possibilities you mentioned it sounded like (SS1000 or the other) 
would be worth buying at? Though I can certainly try to haggle, and $125 
would be ok for a random working thingy of Sun descent and 6 CPUs to play 
with, I suppose. Or to use as a hard, unique extra chair... ;)
