As expected, this list produced answers almost immediately. Thanks
for the help. The responses fell into two basic categories. First
were the responses that admonished me not to buy memory (or disks for
that matter) from Sun, because they are a bunch of thieving bandits.
Almost all of these responses suggested specifically looking at
Kingston (http://www.kingston.com/).

The other responses basically pointed out that Ultra memory is not
`standard'---I had phrased the question a little too generically
because I have not yet actually had reason to look under the hood of
the Ultra, and was going on the report that a friend of mine runs some
flavor of Sun memory in a Linux PC of his. As I should already know,
not all Sparcs are created equally.

Thanks to

        Iskander, Tim
        Milt Webb, IQ Softwa
        A Space Oditty
        Tim Carlson
        Alex Finkel
        DCMERRIT@auto.rockwe
        Jim Harmon
        Timothy P. Henrion
        Justin Young

for their timely responses.
