Subject: older Sun machine for Csound?

Dear list,

can anyone advise me whether it's worth getting a Sun SPARCstation 1 (on
offer) to crunch Csound scores/orcs ? From what I've uncovered, it seems to
be a 20Mhz box with an early SPARC chip - don't know what vintage. The
price asked is equivalent to that of a 100-120Mhz Pentium/686 Linux box -
speed is one thing - versatility another. Any advice?

Ash
