We mistakenly ordered a 3/50 without a 68881.  Now Sun tells us we have to
send the system back to them for upgrading.  The owner of said Sun did not
take that news very well.  Is the installation of a 68881 as simple as
plugging in the chip?  Has anyone does this?  Can anyone recommend a
source for 68881s?

Thanks much.

Jeff
