Sun never offererd the 180 or 200 Mhz versions in the product line to my
knowledge, but they are functionally identical to the 150 Mhz versions
(which I have some of here running fine in both a Sparc 10 and a 20 with the
respective v2.25 bootROM's) as far as I can tell. I have never seen 180 or
200 Mhz versions in the flesh, so I can't say for sure if they will work,
but I don't see any reason why they won't.

The 150's are hard enough to get here in Australia, so the 180's and 200's
would probably be next to impossible to get locally, especially at any sort
of reasonable price... 8-) The quad 200's would definitely be impossible to
source here.

Regards,

Craig.
