I have a SPARCstation :P

OK, so I lied - no more blog posts from TCF. Here’s the update.
Got a Sun SPARCstation LX - with an external hard drive, CD-ROM, and QIC-150 tape drive, and all the SCSI cables - $45. Add $14 for the VGA adapter plug - instant computer. I’ve always wanted a SPARCstation - just so I can say “I have a SPARCstation” with a tone of feigned moral superiority. Who cares if it’s 50 MHz. It’s still cool.
Also picked up some computer parts. Was thinking of rebuilding the server with a 1 GHz P3 I have lying around. Don’t feel too motivated to tear it apart though. I might use the chip with the mobo I picked up to make a play computer.
