Something like these cards here:

605-1574

It's an sbus card with an Intel (or AMD) CPU on it  that lets you run
Windows on your SPARC workstation, just like the newer SUNPCi cards.
You need special software that is really hard to find.
You can also argue if it's worth using it as it's just a 486 or
very early 586 (if it's AMD). It will run run Windows 3.something.
Maybe you could play some old games, but Sun only thought of things like
MS Office for sure, so don't expect that it's really compatible with
any PC software.
