Re: SunOS 4.1.3 or OS/MP?

" It would be soooo excellent to be able to run something like NetBSD on the 
" Solbourne systems. I don't know if anyone has access to the internal 
" hardware specs for the Kbus systems any more. Solbourne itself certainly 
" doesn't (since it's been a software-only company since about 1990 when the 
" hardware side was flogged to Grumman).

more like mid '90s.  i was working for xerox information systems at
the time, and our main server was a very troublesome solbourne; i got
to know the fs guy on a first name basis.

after this long, i wouldn't be surprised if grumman has landfilled
everything solbourne-related.  that's the first thing they did with
solbourne engineering.

[dunno if it'd have been legal, but i thought at the time solbourne
was missing a bet not porting os/mp to sun platforms]
