I could use a better storage method, too. Stacking the collection on top

I've been working on getting shelving
installed in our Garage, and as a
result, I've been digging back to some systems that have been buried.
Right now I'm moving a bunch of Sun hardware and it hit me. What good
are old UNIX systems? I'm curious, what are people using things like
Sparc 2's through 20's for? Or even Ultra 60's and older? Part of the
problem I'm looking at is that you can get something like a Raspberry Pi
that will cost a fraction of what a Sun system costs to run.
I won't ask this about my two SGI O2's, as they're artwork.
BTW, I'll be honest, I'm actually using two Sparc 20's right now. Each
one sits on top of two Record Crates, and acts as a speaker stand.
They've filled that role for several years. Somehow though, furniture
and artworks really aren't the uses I'm looking for. :-)
Got any thing there that you can ship, that will store *ta-da* records?
Getting back to vinyl, records you can find, storage things you can't.
