I'm afraid that athena does not support the Sparc2. The currently
support sun machines are SPARCclassics (although these are being
phased out now) SPARC4s and SPARC5s.

To the best of my knowledge, hotline is the right group of people to
talk to about Athenizing a machine. I beleive the actually cost
varies slightly depending on exactly what type of machine you have, so
if you get back to them with an appropiate machine, they should be
able to give you numbers.
