Sitting around here:

311 (nice SS10 Clone in a white metal case) and two Ross
SparcPlugs.

Sorry, I missed the start of this, so can't reply diretly under the
original post.
I personally have quite an affection for the Sparc 20 and I think quite
a few others do too. For its time a very high spec machine, built very
well. Perhaps the cooling could have been better addressed.
Run here an a Ultra 60 as a web server and an Ultra 80 as my main
machine. Do have a Netra T1 was was a freebie.

I'm quite new to the whole sparc/sunos scene, but have an IPC, IPX,
SS20, Ultra1, Ultra2, Ultra60. All fully spec'd, and with lots of
peripherals.
Can't say I particularly covet any of them. The U60 has the full
version 24bit Expert3D card and makes a nice desktop. It's nice to
think of them as collectables because they're so beautifully designed
and engineered. I'll be surprised if anyone else thinks that way
though. |
