Offer ends August 31!

One last time, just in case there is someone out there who has not seen any
of the discussions via email on this steal of a deal.

If you have a Sun Sparc 10 model 20, 30 or 40, or an 6x0MP series machine,
Ross Technologies is offering a close out special on processor upgrades for
these machines.

For the sum of $1000, you can upgrade a single/dual/quad CPU machine to a 55
MHz four CPU machine, for any of these hardware architectures.  Both SunOS
4.1.3 (patch provided) and Solaris 2.x are supported.  The warranty period
is one year.

For more information you can send me email (I have a brochure) or contact
Beverly Leboeuf (bev@ross.com) at Ross.

Some performance numbers are as follows:

690MP/140	original	with 55MHZ quad upgrade
---------------------------------------------------
SPECrate-int	1847		4509
SPECrate-fp	1930		5402

SS10/51		original	with 55MHZ quad upgrade
---------------------------------------------------
SPECrate-int	1547		4554
SPECrate-fp	1966		5457
