    Pretty decent... there is no accelerated support for the Elite 3D (as
    far as I know) since Sun won't give specs on the sucker... but otherwise
    it's pretty solid. The main tweak I would do (since it has an IDE disk)
    is something along these lines:

    /sbin/hdparm -u 1 -d 1 -m 16 -c 1 /dev/hda

    _PLEASE_, use this at your own risk, and research it before you do...
    this is just what I use which doesn't mean that you should, too. :)
