If you're not developing an X application (in which case graphical
console access would be nice), and only need to access the machine via
the network once it's up and running, you won't need a frame buffer or
monitor.  Sun hardware automagically decides to use the serial port as
the console if there's no keyboard plugged in, which means you can do
anything -- including an OS install -- remotely, if you have an open
serial port on a neighboring machine :-)
