Indeed. PC + weasel, or branded PC with serial console tends to make
your commodity PC more expensive that just buying Sun hardware that
gets it right to start with. Plus the Weasel uses up your only available
PCI slot on a typical 1U server. It apparently doesn't play nicely with
the kernel debugger either, but that's not a big issue for me :-)
