Since we're still talking about 64bit in general, not AMD/Intel specific,
let's talk about SPARC. I'm not yet hijacking. :-)

I have an Sun UltraSPARC 5 since a couple of weeks. Unfortunately without
keyboard or mouse (will have to look on ebay) but at least it has a
standard VGA adapter. Looks like it boots properly. At the moment it is
only collecting dust.

Would it be possible to install Ubuntu on it? Yes of course, but without
keyboard or mouse? Sounds like a challenge... :-)

Or should I just install some (Open)Solaris on it?
