Sure, the staff would be nice, but you sure don't need the
Suns or Crays. One Linux machine would do the job nicely.
If you wanted to spend $3K instead of $1K on the hardware,
you could invest in a nice fast DEC Alpha machine.
Trouble is, nobody (I'm still looking) will sell you software
that runs under Unix, so you'll have to roll your own.
