The PCi 2 was actually a somewhat competent PC on a board and has the distinction of being the only thing I ever purchased new, direct from Sun, back in the day.  I used to fantasize about running a bunch of them in a pseudo-blade server but never did it.

My current Sun collection (which I saved from a skip) are the later models. Ultra 30, Sunblade 2000, Sunblade 1000 and 2 newer SunBlade 1500. I did also save a Silicon Octans workstation as well
