[comp.sys.sun] Sun 4/110 vs. SLC vs. Fast PC vs. ???

If you had a choice between an SLC for $4000, a 4/110C8 19" color 8MB for
$3500, and forget the fast PC part, I need Berkeley (:-)), what would you
do?  I need it for X, some floating point (someone said that the 4/110 was
slower for floating point than a Sun 3 w/accelerator), and some diskless
Sun-serving.  Oh, I have a Wren VI 660MB scsi to go with it which the SLC
will do synchronous with.  The 4/280 (euclid) which I run is probabaly
decent speed for me (if the 4/110 is just as fast), but I don't know.  Any
comments?  I will be happy to summarize.
