The MN10501 is certainly one of the most unique SPARCs, if merely for the

Many of the initial run of KAP unfortunately had a bug that caused the chip
to self destruct over time. I have an old KAP that suffered from this
issue. The guys from hardware came around and replaced them all and I got
to keep the defective one...

other components! ------------------------------------ personal:
