I was thinking of installing it in place of Pitfall, the Sparc 5.
Sparc 5's have been listed as "Dead" in the Athena LifeCycle Summary
page as of June 2002. (Athena 9.1 is Ultra-only.)
We have not had requests for debugging on the Sparc 5 platform, so I
propose to remove the Sparc 5 hardware, install the Sunblade 150, and
call the new hardware with the old name Pitfall.
Does this sound sane?
