FWIW: The SS4 will take a 1MB VSIMM, that will allow the onboard
"tcx" video to do 1280x1024 instead of 1152x900. It's still 8bit, but it
is nicer. You can get this VSIMM from http://www.memoryx.com/ or most of
the other SPARC and workstation hardware vendors listed at the bottom of
http://www.housebsd.org/
