SUN 4/110, 8 Mb, 140 Mb, 60 Mb Tape, 19in Mono. UPGRADE

[Omar A. Karim]

I have this SUN 4/110 with 8 MB memory, 140 Mb disk, 60 Mb Tape drive and
19 in Mono monitor. It runs at about 0.8 Megaflops, 7 MIPS.  I want to
UPGRADE this if possible, but SUN wants an arm and a head for any possible
upgrade. They clearly would much rather I buy a whole new system, such as
a SPARC 2. I would like an improved performance of 8-10 Megaflops, while
retaining all the peripherals.  I have $7000 or so to spend. Have I stated
my woeful and perhaps common case clearly enough? 

I would appreciate any ideas or experience anyone has to offer in the way
of improving the performance of this machine while retaining such things
as OS, compilers etc.

Thanks.
