If'n it ain't one thing…

…it's another. Busted CPU on a Sun 440 at the university across town meant I spent a bigger part of my day on the bus than usual. Remove the CPU card/assembly/whatever (god, they're mother huge) and we're back in business.

Incidentally, it amazes me that you can turn up fully spec'd V440s on Ebay for, like, $8000 US. 4 x 1GHz CPUs, 16 GB of RAM, 4 x 72GB drives…what's not to like?
