Oh look, a masochist!

On the contrary - this SS1+ works so well, why should I spend the effort of porting its apps?

If you're gonna run Sun4, SS20s are cheaper than dirt. I wouldn't bother with anything less than a uSparcII based SS5, personally.

I *heart* my pair of SS20s. Lovely stuff.

I have enough other Suns here (SS10,U1,U2), but, again, why should I bother? It costs me exactly zero hours of effort to leave it as it is, as compared to a couple if I wanted to move the software elsewhere.

I don't know...I'd think you'd get tired of waiting on a 1+. It's not like moving the disk to a 4m and updating the kernel would take more than a few minutes. I don't even bother to turn on my Indy at home anymore, and it's half a decade newer than your S1+.
