Wow.  In evangelizing FreeBSD to the folks I woprk with (who just today 
announced their web site, which is running on a Sparc Classic), I 
forwarded this to them -- they were very impressed, needless to say.  
They want to know the config of the machine (RAM, how much diskspace, 
what kinda disks [i.e. regular scsi2, RAID5, etc), etc...

Would it be possible to get some of this info?
