If you can provide maybe the Sun part number (if the power supply even has 
one) it could be helpful to tracking one down.

Sun's system handbooks do have references to a few wierd systems like some 
Cray servers, etc. so you at least might be able to figure out what you're 
looking for and go from there. 1998 is not that old in Sun history.
