Um... $255?!? They are on the drugs.
Yes, I can make one. No I haven't made one. A list member is sending
me a real Sun3 kb this week.
Of course now that something is moving on this, I wonder if I have a
suitable monitor...
I know I have a working Viking Moniterm I (and the Amiga card to go
with it). Apparently, on this very list, it was mentioned 13 years
ago that the monitor has DIP switches for its timing settings
(1280x1024 @ 60hz was apparently common, and as used with the
A2024-compatible adapter, 1024x800 @ 60Hz or 1024x1024 @ 50Hz)

Anyone know if it'll do 1600x1100 @ 66Hz or 1152x900 @ 67 Hz? Even
if it can, would it require an ECL->TTL level converter for the video?
A quick google is not revealing tech docs for the Moniterm I (but
there's plenty of cautions out there that they fail often).

I use a Sun type 5 (not 5c) keyboard with the removable cable and use a sun

The old Sun kbd has been claimed.
I didn't think that would take long. I don't have any Sun gear that
old or I would have spoken up (my oldest is a 3/50 for which I still
need to make a DA15-DIN8 adapter or find a sun3 kb).
