it hasn't been a sun 3/60 for some time (the picture is out of date)
and there are two: the plan9-specific one is an old sparc ELC that
wasn't doing much since it lost its disc, and the departmental
one is a Cyrix 686 P100+ that also acts as mail gateway.
it has a separate (firewall) file server running on a P90.
the main file server is another P90 and my cpu server is a P133.
that's at work.  i've got a different arrangement at home.
