We are about to launch ourselves into SUN world, probably by buying
a SparkClassic.  Vendors down this part of the world are not great
on supplying useful info (before or after purchase), so please
mail me relevant goodies, or point me at faq lists.  I would like to
know about bugs (hardware and software), SunOS/Solaris incompatibilities,
installation tips, etc.
Our configuration would probably be:
SparkClassic
19 inch monitor
24 MB memory
200 MB internal disk
1.3 GB scsi disk
cd-rom drive

I have always been a VAX/VMS person in the past, this will be my first Unix
box. We will want to hook up to thin ethernet.  All the existing Sun's on campus
run SunOS.

Thanks
Justin
