The thing to watch out for is the IBM disease Sun has recently acquired.
Your workststion is $4200, but ... Oh you want a compiler for that? That's
extra. Seriously, we are holding back going to a new rev of Sun OS because
they want to charge us for lots of things that used to be free. The harware
is cheap, but the total cost is probably more.
