- We tried that. We may eventually go Sun but have just bought 2 720s on
- understanding that we could keep using 835 with graphics box as main cluster
- server for our older 300s. Do I take it that
-
- 1) 9.0 will be last version for said cluster and
-
- 2) we'll not have graphics (we presently have Uniras) on said 835.
- Does this mean a) not on console - a graphics terminal or
- b) no graphics - period.
-
- Perhaps we really should have got a Sparc 10.
