The following is an updated table of Dhrystone benchmark results that includes
the SUN-3/75 (68020) from SUN Microsystems. We had this machine here for a day
and ran several benchmarks. If anyone is interested in more results - drop me
a line. 

This system has, to put it mildly, an interesting price/performace ratio.
Unofficially ~$15k for the base system (no disk).
