  Hooboy...It's a whole new world, my friend.  The only similarities
are the size and shape of the board.

  I've got a stack of 4/600 processor boards...and I'd gladly pay $50
for another one...if you equip it with a nice mbus module, they're
mighty capable machines.  The only bad part is that NetBSD/sparc still
doesn't have SMP support so you can't run it multiprocessor.

  Used to a 4/110?  Buy that 4/600 board.  And get some bleach for
your underwear...you'll need it.
