You'd probably do better to stick your laptop on eBay, and at the same
time take a look at the regular auctions of SparcStations. You can pick
up a decent SS5, 10 or 20 for peanuts. The laptop would likely go for
far more than a SparcStation ... By the way, the nippier 170Mhz
SparcStation 5 pops up on eBay quite regularily as well, and I believe
the problems with Linux support on it have finally been ironed out (the
processor is subtly different to those in the slower models).
