I'm pretty sure it's not (Chris?).  You can use a PC keyboard and
mouse with a Sparcstation if you buy the adapter from Sun (13,000 yen;
a ripoff, but they know that you have to pay even more for a Sun
keyboard, so they get away with it).  However, I've never heard of an
adapter that does the reverse for a PC.

There is one way to find out, though: if you have a Sun keyboard or can
borrow one, just plug it in and see.
