mm00123 - you can always check the sun hardware compatibility list or HCL on sun.com for Solaris 10 x86. This will give you a really good idea what type of hardware can work well or at least out of the box with solaris 10.

case in point, i went to tigerdirect.com, found an almost complete package deal for a motherboard, intel core duo, power supply, 1GB ram and fan for roughly $250 USD. i purchased about 500GB worth of SATA drives (2 drives) for about $100 USD. system runs x86 perfectly.
