If it is a SPARC 10, you might want to ask yourself if it is worth the
hassle of actually getting a CD and using it. The machine is very old,
it will not take the latest release of Solaris. It recally is not a good
introduction to Suns. They might be more useful if you know about Suns
and want a firewall or similar.
You can get on eBay an Ultra machine with CD for $50 or so. It might be
worth taking that route.
