Hmm, well we do have a test system - an old sparcstation 20. However, I'm
not the only user of it and I'm half way through devising/configuring it as
part of a split mailhub (to be moved to an Ultra 10 hopefully later on), so
I don't want to do too much to it. But what is it you are hinting at?? (I
admit I am probably being dumb here and missing something...:-) )
