UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers

I picked up an Ultra 10 for a great price, installed Solaris 10, and aside from running the usual network services I'm wondering, what can I use this box for? What are the killer apps for Solaris that you can't run on anything else? It's got the Elite3D graphics, and while I'm sure they're no match for today's gaming cards, what /is/ it good at?

I also bought a SunPCi II card off eBay, mostly for novelty value (basically a PC laptop on a PCI card that runs in a window or via it's own video out). I might try to coax it into running something besides Windows. Solaris x86 2-for maybe?

Thanks.

My Ultra 10 has been a Samba server for a while, and I also use it to download stuff (wget).

I also write small scripts to do things like watch a web page for a change, and to email me when it does (I do amatuer car racing, and like to see results).

They also make great firewalls. Solaris 10 has ipf, Samba, and Apache installed out of the box. All you have to do is put config files in place and start them.
