You can get a dual 300mhz ultra 60 on ebay for $900-1000 USD. Mine does a make -j 8 buildworld in just over 2 hours with some strategic stuff turned off in make.conf (profiled libs, objective c, fortran). Thu Oct 24 15:10:18 GMT 2002 7546.53 real 10633.14 user 1818.80 sys Search for "sun ultra" on ebay; I got mine from paladintech. Ultra 10s are cheaper but more PC class, my 300mhz does a full buildworld in about 5 hours last time I timed it. Ultra 2 is probably the best value, but we don't support the builtin scsi controller yet. You can also get various new machines on sun.com for around $1000 USD, IIRC a 500mhz blade 100 does a buildworld in around 2-3 hours.
