I just added 256MB of RAM to my Sun Ultra 10 for a whopping $350. Sun used some lame-brained RAM module variant that has just one customer, Sun, for the Ultra series. Meanwhile, I bought 256MB of PC133 for my home PC for $68. My Ultra 10 isn't very old (< 1 year), which goes to show the dinosaur thinking at Sun that slogs on. If our project computers used Linux then we wouldn't even buy Sun stuff, so I do think it's a matter of a couple of years before Sun had better have it's hardware house in order or they will be just a Java house.
