- Thanks to all for the pointers. I yanked the stuff and
- printed it. Not a bad start. Good solid detail is pushing
- it though. I would still like some pointers to more in-
- depth info. Something in between a Sun white paper and
- a research paper. An example is the IBM paperback book:
-
- RISC System/6000 Technology
-
- This kind of material but for the Sun 2000 would be ideal.

- Cheers,
