Nevada Build 99  on a single    X7310A  ( Blade 2000 Ultrasparc III+  1200 MHz 
)  Has  enough Graphic 
 performance on the Gnome Desktop  so that you can actually  live with it. 

  SunBlade 1500 ( RED   1.06 Ghz  UltraSparc IIIi  )  is a lot slower. 
Basically its CPU runs flatout 
if you park the Firefox 3 webbrowser on a site with  a Few  Flash animations.   

  The Older  Workstations   with  400 Mhz  Ultrasparc II  Cpus  Is going to 
struggle a lot 
 With the fullblown Gnome environmnet. I dont have one of those CPU's  anymore. 

  The workstations that would be able to run Opensolaris comfortably  with 
Gnome are 
   probably the: 

   Blade  2000  with Dual   900,1050  or 1200  Mhz  CPU.s
   Blade  2500  with Dual   1.28  or 1.6 Ghz
   Blade 1500 Silver   with 1.6 Ghz 
   Ultra  25 and ultra 45
   
    Maybe  Ultra 80  with 4 CPUS.
