Yup, I'm one of them - done so for several of my machines so far (U2,
U10, IPX), more to follow once I find the time. I've based my own DIY on
this particular tutorial http://www.giga.nl/gigawa.lt/Sun_NVRAM.html,
but there are others. My first attempt looks like this:
http://www.ribbrock.org/PhotoGallery/NVRAM-AXi - later, I used different
holders for the CR2032 cell which I can glue onto the back of the NVRAM
- makes it even neater.

Cheerio,

Thomas
