The author says "My PC is a lowly dual Celeron...", but a dual 533 MHz Celeron system is actually faster than a Pentium 4 1.7 GHz system for running VMWare !
Because, on a dual CPU system, the native OS runs on one CPU and the virtualized OS (running inside VMWare) runs on the other CPU.
I say this by experience because I tried the two configurations and was very surprised (even if the Pentium 4 had PC266 memory !).

What's the use of VNC if you're unable to get connected !
Ha ! A can opener in a can !
Now, put Linux on that thing with dosemu and you could play with your old VGA (320 x 200) 256 colors games !

SPARC as the IV is experimental, and the V is the next production level as I understand it
You should say UltraSparc IV and V (Sun Microsystem), because the SPARC standard is at version 9 (Texas Instruments).
Soon, we will be manufacturing babies. Buy five, get one free. Warranty void if baby got three eyes.
