Sunblade1000 for a desktop. I run OpenBSD on it at times. Mach64 card
1024x768. if you have a better card then  the graphics should be better.
You can do a lot more with it than just run emacs.

Hi there,

I'm consider buying a sun blade 1500, mainly cause I found a great
deal on our local ebay.
I was thinking in replacing my aging ultra 5 as my local server, but
it turns out it seems like a nice desktop system.
Is anyone using a similar machine for desktop ?
How is performance in general (Considering X and such) ? Anyone tried
1680 x 1050 ?
I'm a heavy emacs user, other than that, I don't run any other
significant program (cpu/mem/io) (only mutt, irssi e cia...).
Here are the specs:

Well, I'm getting it anyway, if not for desktop for my server
replacement (2x 64bit pci :-))
Does anyone has a dmesg for that ?

Thanks
