Free to a good home (ie. anyone willing to pick this junk up from my apartment near the stadium): - Sun Ultra 1 workstation, single 166MHz 64bit SPARC - Sun SPARCStation 20, dual-CPU 75MHz 32bit SPARC Both machines should boot up into Debian pre-Sarge with 2.6 Linux kernel (yes, that means you won't need to figure out how to net-install using TFTP, RARP and the guts of OpenFirmware!), have a few hundred MB RAM, a few spare hard disks, and framebuffer cards. Both should be in perfect working order. They do NOT come with a Sun monitor, but I will give you a null modem cable for serial terminal (and you can of course SSH into them). The SS20 was my CVS/SVN/mail/web server for several years, and while these guys are a bit old, they'll outperform an x86 at twice the clock speed (yee-haw!). If nothing else, you can use them for a cross-compilation farm and heat your entire apartment with them. Contact me OFF LIST if you would like to adopt either or both of these highly-desirable boat-anchors. Note that I won't offer any technical support on these machines, I'm getting rid of them because I don't have time for it myself. -- David A. Riggs <[email protected]>
