Yeah, me too, although I still got problems configuring the X server there (some sort of NCR variant of ATI card) - works really nice. There's some unofficial packages for it (GCC 3.1, glibc, etc) > According to Sun the new UltraSPARCS, which have slightly lesser frequency > than the cutting edge Pentium 4's still perform better because of the > superior architecture.

Oh yeah, I wish I could have a nice Alpha machine - but I doubt if I'll buy one since the ram for that machine is extremly expensive!...
