The New York Times reported today (Saturday 5/5) that Sun will announce on
May 15th a SPARC machine that lists for under $5,000.  The article said
the machine would have no drives, so I take it it won't have a SCSI bus,
and probably no SBus as well.

What's not clear from the article is whether this is just an X terminal or
a diskless machine that can run SunOS.
