There are an awful lot of Cobalt systems out there, Thom.  It's a shame
more people aren't supporting them.

However, I must point out that when I mention building a 3rd-party
support track for Sun Cobalt RaQs, I don't see much interest.  Maybe
because a lot of Cobalt users don't want to spend money?  Obviously a
third-party support company (of which there are a few for Sun Cobalt
stuff) would have to charge for their product lines.

So let me ask something else...

If we or someone else (or perhaps a group of third-party support
vendors) would create a 3rd-party support track for Sun Cobalt products,
including updates and upgrades within the limitations of the hardware,
would anyone be interested in subscribing?  What if it cost money <wry
grin>?
