We are having a population explosion of Sun 3/50 diskless
workstations  in  house.   We like  them very  much at  the under $5k
price, but are  now banging  against the  4 Meg  limit.   When one is
running suntools and an application, there is mucho swaping.  

Has  anyone  figured  out  a  way  to  add  more  memory  to Sun 3/50
Workstations?  Can you suck out the  RAM's it  has in  it and replace
them with 1 Meg chips?  Does anyone make a daughter card to  act as a
memory expansion option?  

Seems like a golden opportunity for some garage shop  or Memory house
entrepreneur!  

Any suggestions?
