I used to work for sun at one time and would glad give some hardware you have a 
good home.
What is your inventory list please and your asking prices.   I would be an 
honor to rehouse something like those old troopers.

Cheers Kevin

I have a bunch of the pizza box SPARC ones that need to find a proper
home, but they are somewhat special as they were the ones from one of
the first pan-European Internet service providers (EUnet).

I have a bunch of the pizza box SPARC ones that need to find a proper
home, but they are somewhat special as they were the ones from one of
the first pan-European Internet service providers (EUnet).

Hi,

Every now and again I have a bit of time to mess with old computers - and 
usually for whatever reason - its Sun machines for me.

I’ve had loads over the years, played with them and passed them on.

Does anyone have anything old Sun wise available in the UK? I’d love to find an 
old VME bus machine but anything old or interesting. I can travel
to pick stuff up etc, social distancing observed of course :D

Anyway - PM me if you have anything that’s restorable :)

Cheers

Ian
