For me, a Sun 4/110 is still a useful fileserver; that's about all
it's used for, but, four shoeboxes with 5-1/4" drives spinning is
rather nice, and will do until I can get (and get space for!) a disk
farm of 14" Fujitsu Super Eagles, or even 9" CDC drives attached to a
largish mini. :-) ...that reminds me, I've got to get my 9" CDC drive
out of the living room and attached to one of my PDP-11s.

Sounds good except for the Windoze software... maybe you could replace
that with OpenBSD to add some system security ... or replace
LuzedozeNT with TSX-32. (donning asbestos suit and ducking! :-)
