Hans,
Thanks for your info on this -
Are you sure this will work on an SS10? My understanding is that the SS20
had the on-board video, which could be upgraded, but that the SS10 does not.
I'd have to take the machine apart to look around in there...
I do see such a product for SS20: Sun Sparc 20 8MB VSIMM for Onboard SX
graphics (501-2482)
