A 440MHz IIe is sooo sllooooww. And the PGX64 video card that thing has is really bad too.

I imagine there is a pretty small group of users that need mobile Solaris binary compatbility. I am a Solaris admin and I find my Powerbook works just fine for doing my admin tasks. And it is one heck of a lot faster at doing day-to-day stuff than any but the fastest Sun workstations that we have..
