I'll hopefully look at this tomorrow.

Hmm, I don't have any Sparcs, but I did get MS Virtual PC 2004 yesterday. Slackware and FreeBSD run on it a treat - I
wasintending to try Solaris 8 x86 tomorrow (I don't have 9). It's not a box that could stay permanently of course, but
Icould do the occasional snapshot using it. 

Anyone else have access to a Sparc?
