There are a couple minor nits in the Sun configuration info in
saws_config.html.
Background: The basic config info that came on the Sun quote goes as follows:
Workstation 500-MHz UltraSPARC-IIe, 256-KB L2 Cache, PGX64 Onboard
Graphics, 256-Mbyte SDRAM, 15-Gbyte Internal Disk, CD-ROM, SmartCard,
1.44-MB Floppy, Solaris 8 Pre-Install, Universal Language, Standard
Configuration
1. CD is probably not specifiable as 32X
This means that it is inaccurate to say that the CD is 32X, unless
someone knows for sure from other source. My understanding is that Sun
just quietly installs what happens to be the most popular "speed de
jour".
2. 19" color monitor, Sun Part # X7135A, has, as far as I know been
discontinued by sun.
3. For Kris: It's good that after Sun failed to mention that it has
10/100 ethernet that we added mention that it IS present. Unfortunately,
the first Sunblade config has mention of it twice.
Keep: Networking: Integrated 10/100MB Ethernet
Drop: Networking: 10/100Mb Ethernet
These issues are EXTREMELY nitpicky and are probably not too urgent or
important.
