[ale] Linux on sparc recommendations?

[jb at sourceillustrated.com (John Wells)]

Guys,

In an effort to target one *nix internally, we have been turning down our
Solaris boxes and replacing them with Linux.

My problem: I have a growing number of idle Sparc machines...some that are
pretty capable and pricey.

I'd rather use them than sell them...is there a particular Linux distro
that runs well on most sparcs? I tend to lean towards Debian myself, but
we do have a fair amount of Red Hat boxes around here as well.

Just looking for experiences and recommendations.

Thanks!

John
