Many suggested x86 and Solaris, but since we're going to use
our Sparc-developed software on the box, this is not an option...

The ones who had experience with Naturetech was very happy with
this solution. I have ordered the 777s+ :)

Other suggestions:

   - apple macintosh laptops: imac & powerbook
     apple uses bsd for its operating system now.
     bsd is the original sun os (sunos 4.x, solaris 1.x)

Thanks to all that replied!!
