and

As you may have noted, this machine uses a ROSS Hypersparc module called
a �Sparcplug�
This module can also be installed in a standard PC to use existing
monitor and keyboard.
(Or separate monitor and keyboard).
I am awaiting pricing on a Kit from Bridepoint Technology that will
achieve this (GCS won�t sell  The kits, but will do the installation and
setup of the system for $950, but this includes a license of Hummingbird
Exceed of $450 value), and setup..
The other requirement is that you have a full-height bay available and a
300Watt power supply in your case.
