- A friend of mine works with SLCs with 16 Meg of RAM.
- What sorts of upgrades are available?
-
- Is there a way to take RAM > 16 Meg?
- I believe the SLC upgrades into a ELC for ~ $2k. Is that a 100%
- upgrade? I.e., would the upgraded S/ELC be completely like a ELC,
- including the faster IO and everything?
-
- Sun is supposed to be working on a < $5k color box using a new
- CPU at around 40 SPECmarks. Any clue on whether the SLC will
- upgrade into it, and if so, at what sort of price?
-
- Thanks,
-
- -ans.
